| Abstract: |
| The development of the phytoplankton community was studied in the Jiaozhou Bay during the spring to neap tide in August 2001,through three cruises and a 15 d continuous observation.This investigation indicates that diatom cell abundance increased sharply following the end of a spring tide,from 9 cells/cm3 to a peak of 94 cells/cm3.The dominant species composition and abundance show a quick species sequence from spring to neap tide,and the dominant species at the start phase is Skeletomena costatum,then changes to Chaetoceros curvisetus,finally it changes to Eucampia zodiacus.Silicate concentration increases during spring tide,as a result of nutrient replenishment from the water-sediment interface,its initial average concentration in neap tide is 1.39 μmol/dm3 and reached the peak average concentration of 8.40 μmol/dm3 in spring tide.But the nitrogen concentration dropped due to dilution by the low nitrogen seawater from the Huanghai Sea,its initial average concentration in neap tide is 67 μmol/dm3 and decreased to the average concentration of 54 μmol/dm3 in spring tide.The degree of silicon limitation was decreased and phytoplankton,especially diatoms,responds immediately after nutrient replenishment in the water column.Skeletonmea costatum,as one of the dominant species in the Jiaozhou Bay,shows a quicker response to nutrient availability than Eucampia zodiacus and Chaetoceros curvisetus.It is proposed that dominant species composition and water column stability synchronously determine the development of phytoplankton summer blooms in the Jiaozhou bay. |
