N2 - Describes the spatial variability of the particulate organic matter (POM), expressed in terms of proteins, carbohydrates and chlorophylls, and the specific abundance of phytoplankton. High values of chlorophyll a were due to the nannophytoplankton size class, which is the major contributor to the total phytoplankton abundance. The phytoplanktonic-POM and non-phytoplanktonic-POM contribution estimated at the surface shows that the highest protein percentage (69.5%) was due to phytoplankton, whereas at 10 m depth it corresponded to non-phytoplankton-POM or detritus. -from Authors
