Nutrient enrichment of Cabo Frio (Brazil) sea water for phytoplankton mass production

Natural phytoplankton of Cabo Frio area was grown in 42 m-deep artificially upwelled seawater enriched with increasing concentrations of nitrogen or phosphorus. Respective values allowing maximum biomass, maximum uptake of initial reserve and maximum yield coefficient are rather conflicting. Notwith...

Zusammenfassung:	Natural phytoplankton of Cabo Frio area was grown in 42 m-deep artificially upwelled seawater enriched with increasing concentrations of nitrogen or phosphorus. Respective values allowing maximum biomass, maximum uptake of initial reserve and maximum yield coefficient are rather conflicting. Notwithstanding, respective values of 75 mu g at l super(-1) nitrogen and 5 mu g at l super(-1) phosphorus, and therefore N:P = 15, appeared to be the best compromise for initial nutrient levels.
