COD, DIN, PO4-P and Chl a were investigated in Zhelin Bay between June 2001 and June 2002. All four parameters were used as criteria for the eutrophication classification. Data were analysed by mathematical model. Results show that the inner harbor of Zhelin Bay was meso-eutrophic and the outer harbor was oligotrophic.
