남조 대발생을 제어하기 위한 생물제재의 처리가 수중 생태계에 미치는 영향을 파악하는 연구의 일환으로, 살조세균 처리이후 증가된 용존성 microcystin-LR (MCLR)이 식물플랑크톤 군집의 종조성 및 현존량, 그리고 조류독소 분포에 어떠한 영향을 주는 지를 파악하기 위하여, MCLR standard를 성격이 다른 3가지 현장수를 넣은 시험관에 대조군, 현장 농도의 10배, 100배 씩 처리하고 식물플랑크톤 생물량, 엽록소 a,환경요인, 독소량 등의 변화를 각각 조사하였다. 규조 Stephanodiscus hantzschii가 압도적으로 우점하였던 천호대교에서는 독소처리이후 현존량은 점차 감소하였으며 종조성은 크게 변하지 않았으며, 규조 Aluacoseira와 황색편모조 Dinobryon이 우점한 길동생태공원에서는 현존량이 크게 감소한 반면, 고농도 처리에서는 녹조 Scenedesmus가 크게 발달하였다. 남조류와 용존성 MCLR 농도가 가장 높았던 양수리 육각지에서는 남조 M. aeruginosa 감소 및 총 현존량의 감소가 일어났다. 이상의 결과는 생물제재 처리이후 남조 M. aeruginosa 사멸에 따른 용존성 독소의 증가가 수중내 식물플랑크톤 군집의 종조성 및 현존량 변화를 더욱 심화시키는 것으로 밝혀졌다.

Right after the 2007 Hebei Spirit Oil Spill phytoplankton ecosystems were investigated for 11 years based on the seasonal monitoring of the composition and abundance of phytoplankton species. Comparable time-series data from the 1989 Exxon Valdez or the 2010 Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill sites were not available. It was suggested that the ecological healthiness of phytoplankton ecosystems at EVOS sites had recovered after 10 years following the oil spill based on chlorophyll concentrations even though these concentrations only represented phytoplankton communities in most cases. Chlorophyll concentrations can only reflect limited aspects of highly complex phytoplankton ecosystems. During the last 11 years following the 2017 HSOS, extreme variabilities were met in the seasonally averaged ratios of diatoms to phototrophic flagellates including dinoflagellates based on the microscopic cell countings. Summer phytoplankton communities exhibited some cyclic interannual changes in dominant groups every 2-4 years. During the early years (2008-2010) cryptophytes or raphidophytes (Chattonella spp.) dominated alternately each year, which was repeated again in 2014, 2015 and 2017. Two thecate dinoflagellates, Tripos fusus and Tripos furca, together accounted for 52.5% and 50.0% of all organisms in the summers of 2011 and 2012, respectively, which was repeated again in 2018. Summer occurrence and dominance by the phototrophic flagellates including HABs (Harmful Algal Blooms) species as well as their interannual variabilities in the oil spill sites could be utilized as markers for the stable and long-term management of healthy ecosystems. For this type of scientific ecosystem management monitoring of chlorophyll concentrations may sometimes be insufficient to gain a proper and comprehensive understanding of phytoplankton communities located in areas where oil spills have occurred and harmed the ecosystem.

해양 종속영양 박테리아는 수생태계에서 미소생물환의 주요 구성원으로 유기물의 분해 등 생지화학적 순환에서 중요한 역할을 한다. 해양 생태계의 물질 순환과 에너지 흐름을 이해하기 위해서는 박테리아의 변동에 대한 연구 조사가 중요하다. 본 연구는 방조제 건설로 변형된 영산강 하구 해수역을 대상으로 박테리아와 환경인자들의 월 변동 양상을 조사하였고, 박테리아 변동의 주요인자인 식물플랑크톤(chlorophyll-a)과의 상관성을 크기별로 구분하여 파악하고자 하였다. 연구 결과, 영산강 하구의 박테리아는 저층보다 표층에서 높은 개체수를 보였으며, 겨울철보다 여름철에 개체수가 높았다. 그리고 방조제에 가까울수록 개체수가 증가하였으며, 방조제와 가장 인접한 정점에서 2018년 8월, 9월 그리고 2019년 6월에 최대치로 증가하였다. 박테리아의 개체수가 높았던 정점과 시기에 식물플랑크톤의 생체량도 증가하면서 통계분석결과에서도 양의 상관성을 보였고 크기별로도 모두 유사한 상관성을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 식물플랑크톤 기원의 유기물이 박테리아 변동에 영향을 미치고 있고 크기별로 그 영향의 차이가 없음을 제시하고 있다. 또한 수온에 비례하여 증가하는 박테리아의 계절 분포는 박테리아의 성장에 대한 수온의 영향을 보여주는 결과라 볼 수 있다. 그 외에 간헐적인 담수 유입을 통한 영양염 공급과 박테리아의 개체수 변동의 연관성은 관찰되지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 또한 특정시기에 성층이 거의 없는 조건에서 용존산소가 고갈되는 빈산소층이 관찰되었는데 이는 식물플랑크톤 기원 유기물 공급과 박테리아의 분해로 인한 산소 소모의 결과로 추정된다.

Participating in a multi-disciplinary oceanography program in July 1997 in the vicinity of Tokdo, we studied the distributions of bacterial abundance and production along with those of phytoplankton and heterotrophic nanoflagellates. In the euphotic zone, chlorophyll a (chl a) concentrations ranged from 0.14 to 0.52 ${\mu}$g 1$^{-1}$. Bacterial abundance in the euphotic zone (0.12-0.21 ${\times}$ 10$^9$ cells 1$^{-1}$) in the study area was quite lower than that expected from the observed chi a concentration in the marine environment. The low bacterial abundance seemed to be due to active grazing pressure on bacteria. The fraction of primary production utilized by bacteria was also low(8-12%). Interestingly, surface water temperatures were love. at stations near islands compared to an offshore station located between Ulleungdo and Tokdo and the highest values of bacterial production and chi a were found at stations near islands, strongly indicating island mass effects.

Vertical profiles of the chlorophyll ${\alpha}$, phytoplankton abundance, nutrients and sigma-t were compared with the vertical distribution of phytoplankton species in conjunction with $^{14}$C primary production in the Southern Waters of the East Sea, Korea. In the upper mixed layer the water column was only weakly stratified and ambient nitrogenic nutrient concentrations were markedly depleted. Dissolved silicate seemed to be another limiting nutrient in the surface layer. The occupation of different water depths by several dominant diatom species was well explained by the degree of silicification of each cell and the silicate concentration of ambient seawater. Subsurface chlorophyll maxima were continuously observed in the lower parts of the euphotic layer and the depth coincided with nutricline, supporting our view that chlorophyll maximum was sustained partially by enhancement of in situ growth of phytoplankton and partially by increase of cellular chlorophyll content. The persistence of chlorophyll maximum layer was attributed to the physiological adaptation of the phytoplankters to low light intensities and to the utilization of regenerated nutrients. Integrated water column production of organic matter by photosynthesis appeared to be better related to phytoplankton cell division than to the cell growth in terms of biosynthesis of pigments and other intracellular components.

To estimate the effects of limitation nutrients for phytoplankton growth and its influences on short-term variations of a winter phytoplankton community structure, we investigated the abiotic and biotic factors of surface and bottom waters at 20 stations of inner and offshore areas from 6 to 7 February in Gwangyang Bay, Korea. Also, several algal bio-assay studies were conducted to identify any additional nutrient effects on phytoplankton assemblage using surface water for the assay. The dominant species in the bay was diatom Skeletonema costatum, which occupied more than 70% of total species in most stations (St.1-16) of the inner bay. According to a cluster and multidimensional scaling (MDS) analysis based on phytoplankton community data from each station, the bay was divided into three groups. The first group included stations from the south-western parts of Myodo lsland, which can be characterized as a semien-closed eutrophic area with high phytoplankton abundance. The second group included most stations from the north-eastern part of Myodo lsland, influenced indirectly by surface water currents from offshore of the bay. The standing phytoplankton crops were lower than those of the first group. The other cluster was restricted to samples collected from offshore of the bay. In the bay, silicon (Si) and phosphorus (P) were not a major limiting factor for phytoplankton production. However, since the DIN: DIP and DSi: DIN ratios clearly demonstrated that there were potential stoichiometric N limitations, nitrogen (N) was considered as a limiting factor. Based on the algal bio-assay, in vivo fluorescence values in N (+) added experiments were higher compared to control and P added experiments. Our results suggested that nitrogen may act as one of the most important factors in controlling primary production during winter in Gwangyang Bay.

한국 남해에 있어서 식물플랑크촌의 현존양은 4월이 가장 많으며 그 지리적 분포상태는 주로 연주도와 대마도간의 수온전선형성해역에 가장 풍부하고 그 전선에서 연안측이 외양측보다 더욱 풍부한 경향이므로 전선형석 위치에 따라 그 농도가 달라지게 된다. 현존양이 2월과 4월에는 최고양으로 출현한 205선의 01점에 8월에는 반대로 최소양으로 출현한 이유는 이 해역의 환경요인이 다른 연도의 것보다 뛰어나게 고온, 고염, 빈산소 및 빈영양상태이므로 이들의 특성을 지닌 Tsushima 난류수괴가 연안까지 침투한 까닭인 것으로 사료된다. 출현종류는 33속 72종 중 규조류가 27속 61종이고 경모조류가 6속 11종이며 시기별 출현종류수는 출현량이 4월에 가장 많은데 비해 8월이 가장 많은 것으로 나타났다. 우점종의 조성은 2월은 Eucampia zodiacus, 4월은 Skeletonema costatum과 Chaetoceros curvisetus 및 8월은Chaetoceros affinis 등으로서 시기별로 대차가 있었다. Eucampia zodiacus는 2월과 4월에 있어서 남해연안수역과 제주도 서방의 혼합수역을 지표하는 지표종으로서의 가치가 있다고 본다.

Seasonal changes of abundance of the main phytoplankton groups of species (diatoms, dinoflagellates, chrysophytes, small flagellates and cryptophytes) and a set of environmental parameters were investigated in coastal and pre-estuarine waters of Peter the Great Bay (East/Japan Sea) in May-October of 1998 and 1999. Three periods of mass development were revealed: spring, summer and autumn blooms, with successive change of species. The conditions favourable for each group of species were determined. Driving mechanisms of the succession include nutrients transport through seasonal pycnocline by turbulent mixing, terrestrial nutrients supply by monsoon floods, nutrients supply by upwellings, and light control by the thickness of upper mixed layer. Summer succession could be explained by a simple SST-MLD diagram similar to Pingree S-kh diagram with sea surface temperature as indicator of stratification (S) and mixed layer depth as indicator of light availability (kh).

While scientific information on the spatial variation of soda lake Microalgae is important to limnological studies, little information was reported from the Ethiopian Rift Valley Lake, Lake Chitu. This study aimed to understand the spatial distribution of the dominant Microalgae taxa in Lake Chitu, Ethiopia. The collection of samples and in situ measurements of some physico-chemical parameters were recorded at three sites for one cycle in November 2021. Fourteen species or genera of Microalgae were identified. Among those, Bacillariophyta were the most important with regard to species abundance and the rarest in species richness. Cyanophyta were the second-most important group in terms of species richness and rarity. Comparatively, all microalgae taxa were rare at both the anthropogenic areas (AA) and the flooding area (FA), which could be mainly due to intensive human and animal intervention and associated with extreme turbidity. Among Cyanophyta, Chroococcus minutus, Microcystis aeruginosa, and Spirulina platensis/fusiformis were predominant at both AA and FA, revealing their adaptation to less clear water and pollution. But S. platensis/fusiformis attained the highest abundance at the FA, indicating their preference for water in a highly nutrient-enriched area. We concluded that the spatial variation of microalgae diversity in relation to water quality parameters has implications for the importance of microalgae as a baseline indicator of water quality assessment tools in lakes.
