초록

아산만에서 크기별 식물플랑크톤의 계절적인 변동과 크기 구조에 따른 식물플랑크톤과 환경인자와의 상관성을 조사하기 위해 2003년 10월부터 2004년 9월까지 매월 5개의 조사 정점에서 현장조사를 실시하였다. 조사기간 동안 전체 엽록소 $\alpha$ 농도에 대해서 크기가 큰 세포들(소형 식물플랑크톤, $>20\;{\mu}m$)은 크기가 작은 세포들(미소식물플랑크톤, $3\sim20{\mu}\;m;$ 초미세 식물플랑크톤, $<3{\mu}\;m$)보다 더 높은 점유율을 나타내었다. 특히 엽록소 a 농도가 높았던 2004년 2월부터 4월까지 크기가 큰 세포들은 전체 엽록소 $\alpha$ 대하여 80% 이상 점유율을 보였다. 식물플랑크톤 생체량이 감소했던 5월 소형식물플랑크톤에서 미소식물플랑크톤으로 크기 구조의 변동이 일어났으며, 초미세 식물플랑크톤의 생체량도 급격히 증가하였다. 겨울과 봄철동안 소형식물플랑크톤은 상류지역에서 높은 생체량 분포를 보였으며, 미소와 초미세 식물플랑크톤은 봄과 여름철 중류와 하류(정점 3, 5)에서 높은 생체량 분포를 나타내었다. 소형식물플랑크톤은 추운 계절 동안 수온과 영양염의 공급에 의해서 조절되어지는 반면에 미소와 초미세 식물플랑크톤은 따듯한 계절 동안 성층과 빛에 노출 등에 의해서 영향을 받는 것으로 판단된다.

Samples were collected from five stations monthly from October 2003 to September 2004 to investigate seasonal variation of size structure of phytoplankton and relationship between size-fractionated phytoplankton and environmental factors in the Asan Bay. The contribution of large cells (microphytoplankton, $>20\;{\mu}m$) to total concentrations of chlorophyll $\alpha$ was higher than small cells (nanophytoplankton, $3\sim20\;{\mu}m$; picophytoplankton, $<3\;{\mu}m$) during the sampling period. Especially, large cells contributed 80% to the total chlorophyll a from February, 2004 to April 2004 when chlorophyll $\alpha$ concentrations were high. The size structure of phytoplankton shifted from micro-size class to nano-size class and picophytoplankton rapidly increased when phytoplankton biomass decreased in May 2004. Microphytoplankton exhibited a high biomass in the upper region during winter-spring season whereas nano- and picophytoplankton showed two peaks in the middle-lower regions (Station 3,5) during spring and summer. Microphytoplankton are most likely controlled by water temperature and nutrient supply during the cold season whereas nano- and picophytoplankton may be affected by stratification, light exposure during the warm season.
