长江口及其邻近水域冬季浮游植物群集

应用Uterm hl方法分析了2005年2月28日至3月10日在长江口及其邻近水域进行的大面调查所获浮游植物采水样品,报道了该水域浮游植物的群落特征.初步鉴定浮游植物5门67属130种(含未定名25种).调查水域浮游植物群落主要由硅藻组成,其次为甲藻,此外还有少量的金藻、蓝藻和绿藻.主要优势种为具槽帕拉藻(Paralia sulcata)、中肋骨条藻(Skeletonema costatum)、圆海链藻(Thalassiosira rotula)、标志布莱克里亚藻(Bleakeleya nota-ta)、辐射圆筛藻(Coscinodiscus radiatus)和离心列海链藻(Thalassiosira excentrica).调查区浮游植物的细胞丰度介于0.1~90.0cells.ml-1,平均值为10.1cells.ml-1.浮游植物的水平分布特征是近岸处浮游植物丰度高,远岸处丰度低.水体表层的浮游植物细胞丰度最高,表层之下细胞丰度略有降低,但变化不大.浮游植物的细胞丰度和叶绿素a与硝酸盐、亚硝酸盐、铵盐、磷酸盐和硅酸盐浓度呈显著正相关,而与盐度呈负相关.调查区中部香农-威纳多样性指数和Pielou均匀度指数较高,而东北部和近岸水域较低.

Phytoplankton assemblage in Yangtze River estuary and its adjacent waters in winter time

Water samples were collected from Yangtze River Estuary and its adjacent waters in 28th February-10th March, 2005, and the species composition of phytoplankton was analyzed by Uterm?hl method. A total of 130 taxa (including 25 uncertain species) which belong to 67 genera of 5 phyla were identified. The phytoplankton community was mainly composed of Bacillariophyta, followed by Dinophyta. There were also a few species belonging to Chrysophyceae, Cyanophyceae and Chlorophyceae. The dominant species were Paralia sulcata, Skeletonema costatum, Thalassiosira rotula, Bleakeleya notata, Coscinodiscus radiatus and Thalassiosira excentrica. The cell abundance of phytoplankton ranged from 0.1 to 90.0 cells x ml(-1), with an average of 10.1 cells x ml(-1). Horizontally, the cell abundance was relatively high in inshore and low in offshore; while vertically, it was high in surface water and decreased slightly with increasing water depth. The cell abundance and chl a concentration of phytoplankton positively correlated with the concentrations of nitrate, nitrite, ammonium, phosphate and silicate in water, but negatively correlated with water salinity. The Shannon-Wiener diversity index and Pielou evenness index were higher in the center of survey area but lower in northeast part and inshore area.
