The　influences　of　urea,　nitrate　and　glycine　with　four　concentration　levels　on　attached　culture　of　Nannochloropsis　oculata　were　investigated.　The　organic　nitrogen　source　glycine　was　effective　on　improving　not　only　adhesion　biomass　productivity　but　also　adhesion　rate.　The　maximum　adhesion　biomass　productivity　of　15.76　+/-　A　0.52　g　m(-2)　day(-1)　with　adhesion　rate　of　76.67　+/-　A　0.42　%　was　achieved　with　18　mM　glycine.　To　increase　the　lipid　production,　three　lipid　enhancing　strategies　were　conducted　afterwards,　including　nitrogen　starvation,　high　light,　and　the　combination　of　nitrogen　starvation　and　high　light.　In　nitrogen　starvation　situation,　although　the　lipid　content　was　greatly　increased,　the　adhesion　biomass　productivity　dropped　probably　due　to　the　low　cell　viability.　Increasing　light　intensity　was　effective　on　enhancing　both　adhesion　biomass　productivity　and　lipid　content.　The　results　indicated　that　nitrogen　starvation　was　effective　on　improving　both　lipid　content　and　adhesion　rate　when　high　light　was　applied.　The　maximum　lipid　yield　of　4.32　+/-　A　0.14　g　m(-2)　day(-1)　with　adhesion　biomass　productivity　of　21.32　+/-　A　0.65　g　m(-2)　day(-1),　adhesion　rate　of　86.81　+/-　A　0.10　%　and　lipid　content　of　20.24　+/-　A　0.06　%　was　achieved　with　the　combination　strategy.
