WAMSI Node 1.1.2 - Spatial and Seasonal Variability in Microphytobenthos and Macroalgal Primary Productivity and Nutrient Dynamics

Created 05/05/2025

Updated 05/05/2025

Despite the apparent importance of microphytobenthos and macroalgal populations as primary producers, primary productivity data and particularly data investigating the controls on primary productivity in WA shelf waters are sparse. We have investigated microphytobenthoc and macroalgal primary productivity in Marmion Lagoon by measuring oxygen evolution during a number of targeted incubations.
