The presence-absence of macroalgae and/or phytoplankton in some areas of the Venice lagoon and the factors controlling the prevailing of one over the other were tested by monitoring two critical sites over March-December 1990. One, Sacca Sessola [B1], was the lagoon area more densely populated by macroalgae, vice versa the other, namely Fusina [D] displayed only phytoplankton blooms. For this purpose macroalgae and phytoplankton biomass variations were studied directly in field. In addition, macroalgal biomass growth was studied by resuspending pre-determined biomass amounts into net cages placed at different depths. These semi-natural methods were not able to reproduce the real algal growth, however allowed to identify the main causes of p...
