Statistical comparison ofphytoplankton densityattheoffshorestationshasgenerally shownsignificantly highersurfaceandbottomphytoplankton densities atStation1.Chlorophyll "a."-concentration hasalsobeengenerally elevatedatStation1(Ref.3,pageD-22).Theincreases mayhaveresultedfromphytoplankton fromthedischarge canaland/orenhancedphytoplankton growthduetoincreased watertemperature.
