Abstract

Phytoplankton are microscopic, free floating organisms and is the principal primary producers of the oceans. Their size range from 0.2 μm to 2 mm. Phytoplankton contains primary pigments and accessory pigments such as chlorophyll (Chl), carotenoids etc. which strongly absorbs the blue and red light of the visible spectra. Phytoplankton also influences the total scattering properties of sea water.
