Cover Story: In the area around the Bay of Algeciras (Alboran Sea), urban and industrial activity is underway, which is potentially responsible for the release of significant quantities of nutrients towards the marine environment. Our analyses reveal that these allochthanous nutrients (mainly inorganic nitrogen coming from industrial sewage) would be affecting the time patterns of chlorophyll a in the bay. However, more exhaustive inventories of sewage and river discharges are necessary to adequately rate their impact. View this paper.
