Pearson’s Correlations (ranging from –1 to 1) and p-values for means of GPP and mean NEP per station per deployment and the means of chlorophyll-a, water temperature, salinity, total phosphorus, total nitrogen, and total organic carbon per station per deployment for both Biscayne Bay and Tampa Bay. Correlations with p-values less than 0.100 are in bold
