Experimental induction of a large phytoplankton bloom in Antarctic coastal waters
The experimental enclosure of an Antarctic planktonic community in a large (35 m3) mesocosm moored in Johnson’s Dock (62° 39.576’ S, 60°22.408’ W, Livingston Island, Bransfield Sector, Antarctica) was followed by a large phytoplankton bloom. This bloom, dominated by the large diatom Thalassiosira antarctica, reached a biomass 1000-fold greater than in the ambient waters. The net growth rate of ...
متن کاملStudy of phytoplankton community in coastal waters of Hormozgan province, Qeshm and Leangeh Islands
The study of spatial and temporal variability of distribution of phytoplankton communities in Northern part of the Persian Gulf (Qeshm andLengeh Islands) was studied. In this study, five groups (47 genera) of phytoplankton include Bacillariophyceae, Dinophyceae, Cyanophyceae, Crysophyceae and Euglenophyceae were identified. The results showed that Diatoms group (79.6 %) and Rhizosolenia genus (...
متن کاملScale characteristics of the bloom event: A case study in the Iranian coastal waters of the Southern Caspian Sea
Nutrient enrichment in water and sediments due to excessive anthropogenic activities in recent years has caused excessive algal growth in the Caspian Sea. The current study was conducted to determine the abundance of phytoplankton community, the dominant species and chlorophyll-a [Chl-a] concentration during algal blooms in the Iranian coastal waters of Caspian Sea through four seasons from 201...
متن کاملUncertainty Analysis of Phytoplankton Dynamics in Coastal Waters
There is an increasing concern about the interactions between phytoplankton and coastal ecosystems, especially on the negative effects from coastal eutrophication and phyto-plankton blooms. As the key indicator of the coastal ecosystem, phytoplankton plays an important role in the whole impact-effect chain. Primary production by phytoplankton forms the basic link in the food-chain. A lot of eff...
متن کاملQuantitative (Chlorophyll-a) and qualitative (species composition) seasonal fluctuations of phytoplankton in Lavan coastal waters (North of the Persian Gulf)
Phytoplankton species composition as well as amount of Chlorophyll-a and their relation to physico-chemical parameters were studied. The samples were collected monthly from October 1996 until September 1997 in two stations, i.e. Lavan and Douberkeh coastal waters. In this study, 65 phytoplankton species related to 3 groups of diatoms, dinoflagellats and Blue-Green Algae (24 genus and 44 species...
