Outline of Final Research Achievements

In the neritic area of Sagami Bay, from the short-term variations in physicochemical properties deviated from the seasonal variation pattern, water conditions were divided into the period of normal condition (coastal water), high freshwater discharge from rivers after rainfalls, the expansion of Tokyo Bay Water, and/or the intrusion of Kuroshio Water, Oyashio Intermediate Water or deep water from the continental slope. The effects of these water conditions on phytoplankton assemblage were evaluated. Moreover, annual requirement of dissolved inorganic nitrogen and phosphorus (DIN and DIP, respectively) for phytoplankton was estimated from primary productivity, assuming a nutrient uptake molar C:N:P ratio of 106:16:1 (Redfield ratio). As a result, for annual primary production, the contribution of open-ocean-originated DIN and DIP was slightly higher than that of land-originated ones.
