Abstract

Matrices are developed in order to convert published chlorophyll concentrations to values which would have been obtained had correct spectrophotometric equations been used. The main result is to decrease chlorophyll a values by as much as 23 % and chlorophyll a values by as much as 78 %. Corrected average values are given for the South-East Indian and South-West Pacific Oceans. Corrected values are given of the productivity index of several regions in the South-West Pacific Ocean. Some published values for the chlorophyll content of marine algae are corrected.
