Abstract : A microscale ecological study is done using the closure approach to understand the impact of productivity controlled by geographical and seasonal variations on the intermittency of phytoplankton. Parameters are estimated from the nature of productivity and spread of phytoplankton density during field observation done at four different locations of Tokyo Bay. The model validation shows that our results are in good agreement with the field observation and succeeded in explaining the intermittent phytoplankton distribution.
