Abstract
The bloom of the genus Stephanodiscus was gradually extinguished after 18 April. Counts of bacterial population were increased as the diatom bloom was disappeared. Numbers of the heterotrophic nanoflagellates and ciliates were also increased during the disappearance of the bloom. The densities of the mesozooplankton, the major predator of the diatoms, started to increase in April. However, their growth was suppressed during the bloom period of the diatoms (from January to March). During the bloom period of the diatoms, the monthly average value of the basic productivity amounted up to 11,765.7 mgC $m^{-2}day^{-1}$, which is relatively high value considering the low temperature and light during that period. The growth rate of phytoplankton in March, when the bloom was beginning to be supressed was 0.007. The growth rate of phytoplankton was negative value in April when the decreasing of the algal density was started.
