Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the fluctuation in phytoplankton assemblages with regarding to environmental conditions and nutrients, which were surveyed quarterly over the fours seasons (February, May, July, and October). In turn, an understanding of biological effects should provide insights into a wide range of initiated Cochlodinium blooms in Narodo. Sampling was carried out throughout 2001 on the coasts of Busan (St. 1), Yeosu (St. 2), Narodo (St. 3), Kohung (St. 4), and Kwangdo (St. 5). The maximum surface water temperature was recorded in July, and it ranged from 20 to $22^{\circ}C$. Salinity showed no great variation, which maintained itself in the range of 29-34 psu. The maximum surface salinity was recorded in February, which was about 34 psu. The chlorophyll $\alpha$ concentration of the surface water ranged from 0.01 to $1.3\;{\mu}g\;1^{-1}$. The concentrations of $NH_{4}-N $ were persistently high from February to October; in particular, the peak was observed at St. 1 in February and May (0.15 and $0.19\;{\mu}mol\;1^{-1}$, respectively), while it was detected at St. 2 in July and October (0.22 and $2.2\;{\mu}mol\;1^{-1}$ respectively). Similar trends to those for $NH_4-N $ were observed in the concentrations of $NO_{2}-N$ and $NO_{3}-N$. In contrast to nitrogen, a distinct peak of $NO_{4}-P$ at St. 3, 4, and 5 was observed throughout year $(0.01-0.1\;{\mu}mol\;1^{-1}$ except for October. At St. 1 encounter a peak of cell number of 30,000 and $13{\times}10^3$ cells $1^{-1}$, respectively, in July and October. During the period of this study, the majority of the taxa were diatoms. The dinoflagellates were rather abundant after February, in particular at St. 3, 4, and 5 which attained an abundance of $10\~20\%$without marked fluctuation during the period of this study. At St. 3, the highest average cell width, $178.11\;{\mu}m$, was recorded: the highest cell length, $337.72\;{\mu}m$, was measured in July. Consequently, dinoflagellates bloom in July at Narodo influenced by warm water current are not only associated with a desirable development of cell morphometric characteristics, but also with the health growth of C. polykrikoides. During the period of this study, warm water currents caused an increased water temperature in Narodo, but did not change the amount of nutrients.
유해성 적조생물 C. polykrikoides가 매년 발생되는 나로도와 반대로 전혀 최초발생이 되지 않는 부산해역을 정점으로 2001년 2월, 5월, 7월, 10월에 걸쳐 환경요인과 식물플랑크톤의 군집 동태를 조사했다. 수온은 7월에 최고 $20-22^{\circ}C$ 범위를 보였고, 염분도는 각 정점별 큰 차이는 없었으며, 최고 34 psu을 나타내었다. chlorophyll $\alpha$의 농도 범위는 $0.01-1.3\;{\mu}g\;1^{-1}$ 암모니아질소는 정점1에서 2월과 5월에 0.15, $0.19 {\mu}mol\;1^{-1}$ 정점2에서 최고 7월과 10월에 각각 $0.22-2.2\;{\mu}mol\;1^{-1}$ 보였다. 질산질소와 아질산질소도 암모니아성질소와 비슷한 변화 곡선을 나타내었다. 인산인은 정점 3, 4, 5에서 최고 $0.01-0.1\;{\mu}mol\;1^{-1}$ 범위를 나타내었다. 실험기간 동안 대부분 규조류가 우점으로 나타났고, 정점1에서 7월과 10월에 최고 30,000, $13{\times}10^3\;cells\;\;1^{-1}$을 보였고, 출현세포의 평균 폭은 정점3에서 최고 $178.11\;{\mu}m$, 세포 길이는 7월에 $337.72\;{\mu}m$였다. 나로도 해역이 부산에 비하여 C. polykrikoides 최초 적조발생의 원인은 아마도 외해로 유입되는 전선에 의해서 성장에 알맞은 환경여건을 만들어 줌과 아울러 다른 와편모조류의 세포형태나 출현 빈도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 보인다.
