Available nutrients are usually limiting factors. This includes the usual elements like Nitrogen and Phosphorous to name a few; there are many others nutrients required as well.
There are other abiotic (maybe less obvious) factors that affect primary production in marine environments:
-turbulence and critical depth
-light
-biosphere production
-pollution (note: this is not typically considered to have a large influence, though I still find it worth mentioning :p)
There are biotic factors that influence primary production as well, just on a small scale in the grand scheme of things.
