摘要

Abstract

The temporal and spatial distributions of zooplankton communities in the upper

middle

and lower reaches of the Xin’anjiang Reservoir

Zhejiang

China

were investigated monthly

between 2009 and 2010. Silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) and bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis) dominated the pelagic fish community of this large

deep reservoir. Cladocerans were distributed evenly throughout the reservoir. Rotifers were mainly found in the upper reaches

while copepods tended to assemble in the lower reaches. The Pearson correlation analysis and stepwise multiple regression were used to identify the major physicochemical gradients influencing community variations. Zooplankton community distributions were influenced by water temperature

dissolved oxygen

phosphorus

nitrogen

and silicon. Excess nutrients

in particular silicon

stimulated rotifer growth. Based on these findings

it is possible to use rotifer density as a bioindicator of eutrophic status in deep reservoir ecosystems.
