Table 3. Estimate of daily gross primary production (GPP), respiration (R) and net ecosystem production (NEP) integrated over the upper photic layer of Dziani Dzaha, expressed as g O2 m-2 d-1.

    GPP R NEP P/R
optodes in situ day 1 22.2 -20.3 1.97 1.09
  day 2 17.3 -18.2 -0.90 0.95
PSOE optimal 19.4 -11.4 8.09 1.70
  upper limit 24.6 -11.4 13.3 2.16
  lower limit 14.4 -11.4 3.0 1.26

Staehr et al. [23] method was used to fit optode in situ measurements, whereas Bright and Walsby [49] method was used to model production integral according to laboratory photosynthetic oxygen evolution (PSOE) measurements.
