Long-term trends of Secchi depth as indicator of eutrophication in coastal areas of the Middle Adriatic sea

The paper presents the results of Secchi depth values recorded during the last 25 years in neritic as well as one pelagic station in the middle Adriatic. Trend of changes in Sacchi depth indicated a negative sign at all investigated areas, that means transparency decreased from 0.02 to 0.08 m yr-1 during that period. The effect of phytoplankton on the attenuation of light in the water also can be described in terms of the chlorophyll concentration.
