Abstract

Phytoplankton pigments and water optical properties were investigated around the Ryukyu Islands on April, 1996. The ratio of (beta) -carotene and chlorophyll-a increased as proportional to the sampling depth at the southeast off the Ryukyu Islands. The concentration of chlorophyll-b increased the absorption coefficient.
