| Description: Related to primary productivity The amount of carbon fixed by organisms through the synthesis of organic matter Sources of energy Photosynthesis (solar radiation) Chemosynthesis (chemical reactions) Influenced by Availability of nutrients Amount of solar radiation Related to primary productivity Most abundant marine life exists where there is ample Nutrients Good sunlight Productivity in polar oceans Because of nutrients rising from deeper water, high-latitude surface waters have high nutrient concentrations Low solar energy limits photosynthetic productivity Picture Stats: Views: 282 Filesize: 315.5kB Height: 550 Width: 1190 Source: https://biology-forums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=39686 |
