Assessment of primary production at four depths of a coastal station (“in situ” 14C method). “In situ” 14C incubation was performed in station C1 located about 200 m from the coast with a maximum depth of 18 m. 3 replicates of transparent polycarbonate bottles and one dark bottle were inoculated with 300 ml of a 20 mCi/ml NaH14CO3 solution. Each bottle was then mounted on a cross shaped support fixed on a rope to maintain the bottles for 3 hours at the fixed depths.

Estimation of photosynthetic rate vs irradiance curves (P vs E). The determination of the photosynthetic rate versus irradiance curves were performed by means of an ICES “light incubator”. A set of 12 incubation flask with transmission levels ranging from 0 to 100 % are used to simulate 11 different irradiance conditions and a dark flask. 0.059 0.132 0.230 0.476 0.845 1.153 1.310 1.641 1.993 2.357 2.800 E0 (Ein*m-2*h-1) 2.1 4.7 8.2 17 30.2 41.2 46.8 58.6 71.2 84.2 100 Trasm.

Measurement of phytoplankton absorption The use of the “integrating-sphere” permits measurements of filter-retained particle samples in both the transmission mode and the reflection mode, allowing the correction for the sample backscattering. Optical characteristics of coastal waters are strongly influenced by particles which does not covary with chlorophyll. Particulate detritus, including all nonliving cellular material, fecal pellets, heterotrophic bacteria and zooplankton, strongly influences the light-scattering bias in absorption measurement of acquatic particles.

0 m 10 m 15 m 5 m a* = āph(l)/[Chl a] The ratio between the pigmented particulate matter absorption (aph) and phytoplankton biomass is called specific absorption coefficient (a*) and it is used in bio-optical models to assess how much light is absorbed by phytoplankton according to its species composition and physiological acclimation.

Conclusions - Estimates of photosynthetic rate obtained by means of a light-incubator are substantially consistent with “in situ” data, though the light range of the instrument used must still be increased in order to correctly describe phytoplankton response under high light intensity. - The use of bio-optical models permit the assessment of photosynthetic rate with higher spatial resolution avoiding long “in situ” incubation. - The characterization of light absorption by acquatic particles provides useful information about the inherent optical properties of the water column and permit to assess how much light is absorbed by the phytoplankton.
