Abstract

The coastal zone of Yucatan Peninsula has been recognized as the most important environment to the economic development of this region. Different projects have been conducted in this area, including harbors, tourist, commercial, and aquaculture infrastructure, among others. However, there is no information available on what are “normal” concentrations of dissolved inorganic nutrients (DIN) and chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) for these regions. In order to establish the base-lines of selected water quality parameters four coastal areas of the north of Yucatan Peninsula (SE, Mexico) a monitoring program has been conducted since 1999 in four localities of the north of Yucatan which show differences on the kind and intensity of anthropogenic impacts.
