SEA WATER INFLUENCED BY OUTFALLS

Abstract
The accomodation capacity of Rhodomonas lens to develop
its life cycle in sea water influenced by wastes is presented.
The wastes additionated to sea water ranging within 1-20 ml%
had satisfied nutritional requests of the species. 
The chlorophill a and cellular density were rather at the same
level in the control and experimeded variants, too. The growth
of both heterotrophic bacteria and Rhodomonas as well as the 
speed or the selectivity of different nitrogen compounds
absorbation are discussed.
