The rates of O2 production (10.3 mmol m-2 d-1) and CO2 consumption (13.0 mmol m-2 d-1) by photosynthetic activity exceed the evasion of O2 and CO2 into the atmosphere (respectively 2.4 and 1.2 mmol m-2 d-1). The net apparent production of O2 from day to day is only 11% ofthe diurnal O2 increase. The biological production of oxygen at a short distance from the center of the Guinea Dome appears to be higher than that in the exact center. (Résumé d'auteur) %$ 032MILPHY
