Recent measurements (1986-1988) of the distribution of the concentration of different nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus and silicate) in the Dover Strait have been used, combined with older results, to calculate the total flux (dissolved and particulate) of nutrients into the North Sea. Special efforts are made to take into account in the fluxes the tidal, geographical and temporal variations in the concentrations of the different nutrients. No vertical gradients in the concentration of the different nutrients were found. Increased nutrient concentration was found in the coastal zones of England and France, compared to the Atlantic water in the central part of the Dover Strait The variation within a single year and between different years in the data... |
