��езонные изменения таксономической структуры и фотосинтетических пигментов фитопланктона в пелагиали и литорали двух сообщающихся озер в беларуси

The seasonal pattern of phytoplankton taxonomical composition and phytoplankton chlorophyll а content from pelagial and littoral locations with and without macrophyte beds in two interconnected lakes (north-west of Belarus) under contrasting trophic conditions were studied. We estimated influence of hydrochemical parameters on phytoplankton in studied lakes. There was “a clear water phase” in pelagial and low phytoplankton abundance in littoral of mesotrophic Lake Obsterno but we revealed a brief pulse of Chrysophyta and “a late spring bloom” with high total phytoplankton abundance in shallow macrophyte-covered low trophic state Lake Nobisto. It was found some prominent differences in total phytoplankton abundance and taxonomic composition in littoral and pelagial locations of both lakes. We used Phyto-Pam phytoplankton analyser for analysis of algae pigments. Phyto-Pam method allowed roughly identify two types of pigments - pigments of green algae and diatoms and revealed differences in concentrations of pigments between littoral locations and pelagial in both lake types. Results indicated that total chlorophyll a content has a pronounced seasonal cycle with high values during the early fall and low values throughout the late spring in mesotrophic lake and have shown differences in phytoplankton pigments between lakes littoral locations.
