In the present study, the variability of primary production and planktonic<br />

community respiratory carbon requirement were investigated in four<br />

consecutive months from June to October at Pantai Vietnam Jetty, Pulau<br />

Bidong. The rate of primary production was measured by using light and dark<br />

incubation method. The planktonic carbon requirement was measured on four<br />

different size fractions; mesoplankton (>200 µm), microplankton (
