No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Since 1986, physico-chemical and chlorophyll 'a' data are obtained by means of CTD profiles and bottle samples at an offshore station located in the southeastern Bay of Biscay (43º 27’ N, 1º 55’ W). The station is considered to be non-impacted by anthropogenic influence due to its distance (13.1 km) from the main pollution sources in land, which makes it suitable for exploring the response of phytoplankton to oceanometeorological forcing. ...
