- •
Importance of spring-neap tidal cycle to the primary production in a turbid estuary.
- •
Peak concentration of Chl-a was located near the low salinity region.
- •
Peak concentration of Pheo-a was located in the ETM zone.
- •
Chl-a concentration reached maximum two to three days after neap tide.
- •
Pheo-a variation was dominated light limitation due to mixing and SSC.
