Abstract
To explore planktonic and ecosystem responses to thermal effluents of a power plant, three transect surveys were conducted in Nov-01', May-02' and Jun-02' at the bay adjacent to the outlet of Taiwan Nuclear Power Plant II. At the given station, seasonal trends were evident with most maximal measurements observed in Jun-02'. Physical mixing between background seawater and thermal effluents played an important role in determining planktonic biomass since chlorophyll (Chl, 1 -3.7) in deeper regions. High observed dissolved organic carbon (DOC) anomaly (23 -34 gC m 3
