In late July of 2009, low P concentrations andthe maximum photochemical efficiency of photosystem II （Fv/Fm） in the initial samples together with Fv/Fm and chlorophyll a （Chl a）responses to P addition indicated P limitation at the two stations. In early August, low P levels still limited phytoplankton growth atstation A. Fv/Fm and Chl a were the highest in the NP treatments at station B, suggesting an N/P co-limitation. In mid-September,nutrient concentrations and Fv/Fm were elevated and phytoplankton communities were healthy. Greater Fv/Fm and Chl a in the treat-ments with added P than those without the addition suggested potential P limitation at station A. Lack of Fv/Fm and Chl a responsesfollowing nutrient additions indicated N and P repletion at station B. At the end of July 2010, neither N nor P was limited at station B.Additionally, Fv/Fm coupled with 24-h-long nutrient enrichment experiments can be used to detect P limitation and N/P co-limitationto natural populations. This method can be more accurate for assessing co-limitation than the use of criteria of nutrient concentrationsand ratios as indicators, and can provide more rapid results than nutrient addition bioassays using chlorophyll response as an indica-tor, when a population is potentially limited. Compared with the two conventional methods, the results based on F,/F~ can also pro-vide more detailed information about physiological states of the populations.展开更多
