Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Nutrient decrease in the Seto Inland Sea, Japan, was investigated. We try to find out the reason of the nutrients decrease and we found the importance of nutrient release from the bottom sediments as nutrient source in the Harima-Nada and Bisan-strait, Seto Inland Sea, Japan. Moreover, we examined about the measurement and prediction methods. Also, we focused on the nutrient loading from the land and we conducted the measurements of nitrogen and phosphorous concentrations of river water. Moreover, the response of phytoplankton assemblage to the decrease is discussed, because the phytoplankton is the primary producer of a marine ecosystem and supports that. The decompositions of organic matter originated from the diatoms were tested and the nutrient release was discussed with tracing the N:P:Si ratio and predicted the change of phytoplankton assemblage.
