Theoretical arguments for and experimental verification of the kinetic approach to the study of primary production in the ocean are described. According to some kinetic models the increase in pure primary production in the ocean is proportional not to time, but approximately to the square root of time. Calculation of the pure primary production of the Pacific Ocean, according to data in the literature, allowing for kinetic correction, gives a value of the order of 7 x 10(9)-10 x 10(9) tons CO2 per annum, equivalent to about 10% of the global pure primary production in the present-day biosphere, calculated from seasonal fluctuations in CO2 in the atmosphere. The existence of polycircadian cycles of function of oceanic phytoplankton is demonstrated.
