Nutrient Limitation is a biogeochemical condition in which the rate of primary production or organism growth in marine ecosystems is constrained by the insufficient availability of one or more essential inorganic elements, such as nitrogen, phosphorus, or iron, relative to the organism’s stoichiometric demands.
