Table 5
Multiregression between chl a and photosynthetic accessory pigments for data of the time series at N12 and M33: chlorophyll b (chl b), chlorophyll + (chl +), and phycoerythrin (PE). , , represent the partial regression coefficients and residual chl a when accessory pigments are null. The inverse of , , represent the mean estimate of the different pigments/chl a ratios. = mean estimates of pigment ratio for chlorophytes (x = 1), chromophytes (x = 2), and cyanobacteria (x = 3).
