The near-bottom chlorophyll A maximum in Onslow Bay : effects of wave events on benthic microalgae resuspension |
2009 |
1979 |
Both a significant benthic microflora and a near-bottom chlorophyll a maximum
are present in Onslow Bay, NC. Over 80% of the chlorophyll a is associated with the
sediments, supporting previous findings that primary production by microalgae on the
