2021, Ocean and Coastal ManagementCitation Excerpt :Similarly, Goosen et al., (1997) reported phosphate concentrations in Kenyan waters ranging from ~0.1 to 0.66 μmol L−1 during the SEM and intermonsoon (Nov) period whilst Kromkamp et al. (1997) reported a narrower range of 0.1–0.35 μmol L−1. Away from estuaries and river outflows surface NO3− concentrations are generally reported as being <0.1 μmol L−1 along the Kenyan coast (Kromkamp et al., 1997). Van Couwelaar (1997) however reported a concentration of 0.5 μmol L−1 specifically for the North Kenya Banks for July (SEM), whilst Obura (2001) and Nguli (1995) both suggested typical concentrations of <2–3 μmol L−1 for shallow shelf waters.

2020, Progress in OceanographyCitation Excerpt :Picoplankton are known to be particularly important for productivity in these and surrounding waters (Ranaivoson and Magazzu, 1996; Wallberg et al., 1999; Lugomela et al., 2001a, 2001b) suggesting that they certainly represent a major, if not the major, component of the total chlorophyll pool, as is expected for tropical waters (Partensky et al., 1999; Veldhuis and Kraay, 2004). In a rare study Kromkamp et al. (1997) estimated that 40–60% of total chlorophyll was found in the picoplankton size fraction (<3 μm) in Kenyan waters. This compares very well to the 34–66% contribution estimated by Ranaivoson and Magazzu (1996) off Madagascar.
