The effects of tides on the inception of phytoplankton blooms in lagoon-type estuaries

A computer model has been constructed to examine the relationship between the tidal cycle and potential phytoplankton productivity in Arcata Bay. The results of the model indicate that the timing of the tidal cycle relative to solar noon can affect gross productivity by as much as 30 percent and that plankton blooms in the estuary may be possible at any time of year when clear skies coincide with mid-day high tides.
