This study aimed to investigate the seasonal changes of the primary production, chlorophyll a and nutrients surrounding Taiwan. The nutrients, including nitrate, phosphate and silicate changed with season. All the nutrients in autumn were higher than summer’s. The primary productions had a high relationship with chlorophyll a. The surrounding water of Kueishan Island had the highest primary production. In this area, the primary production in summer and autumn were 8.81 and 6.92 g C/m2/day, respectively. The primary production in Northeast area, East area, Southwest, Penghu islands and northwest area were averaged 1.007、0.217、0.519、0.567 and 0.822 g C/m2/day in summer, respectively. Following the above area, the primary production averaged 1.195、0.564、1.012、0.331 and 0.616 g C/m2/day in autumn, respectively. Furthermore, following above area, the chl a averaged 0.138、0.070、0.107、0.058 and 0.078 mg/m3 in summer, and 0.255、0.198、0.336、0.167及0.156 mg/m3 at autumn, respectively. |
