摘要

Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine the phytoplankton community structures of reservoirs of different trophic status

located in a cold region. Physical and chemical variables and the phytoplankton communities were investigated in two reservoirs (Xiquanyan Reservoir and Taoshan Reservoir) in Northeast China in 2009. The two reservoirs showed strong seasonal fluctuations in their physical and chemical composition. Results of the trophic status index indicated that Xiaquanyan Reservoir was mesotrophic

whilst Taoshan Reservoir was eutrophic. Diatoms were the dominant phytoplankton group in Xiquanyan Reservoir throughout all seasons of the study

while in Taoshan Reservoir

diatoms dominated in spring

and cyanobacteria dominated in summer and autumn. This difference was resulted from differences in local environmental factors

including nutrients and hydrology. This study suggests that in mesotrophic reservoirs

nutrients played a key role in controlling seasonal phytoplankton successions

whereas in eutrophic reservoirs water temperature was the key factor in a cold region. Notably

the dominant species in summer in the Taoshan Reservoir was Microcystis

which may produce toxins depending on the ambient conditions

and presenting a risk of local toxin contamination.
