Measurements of primary productivity and light were taken in Glacier Bay to determine the effect of glacial flour. Not as much glacial flour was seen as predicted, but algal biomass also attenuated light. A wide range of primary productivity rates was found.en-USPrimary productivity (Biology) -- Alaska -- Glacier BaySeawater -- Optical properties -- MeasurementOther
