Abstract: Diurnal variation in net and nannoplankton primary production and chlorophyll a was studied in November 1975. A well marked salt wedge type system was observed during day time. Chl.a, primary production and assimilation ratio of nannoplankton were higher than those for netplankton. Mixing due to wind controlled the distribution of chl. a, nutrients and salinity during late evening and night hours. Light penetration was considered as the chief limiting factor in this study.
