The responses of the phytoplankton
metrics (Chl-a, biomass) to physicochemical
parameters (TP, Secchi
depth) and the index (AARL-PC and
AARL-PP Scores) were analysed with
correlation tests. Correlation were performed
for each pair of metrics (in
Molina Navarro et al., 2014) obtaining
R2 and p-value (Spearman test).
