摘要

Abstract

To study the relationship between zooplankton community structure and environmental factors and water quality in the Harbin Section of the Songhua River

investigations were carried out in June

August

and October 2011. Canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) and saprobic indices were used to process and analyze the data. Seasonal variability was identified as a significant source of variation

which explains the fluctuation in zooplankton density. In autumn

the dry season

water residence time increased and zooplankton biomass and abundance accumulated in the slow flowing waters. Zooplankton abundance increased when food conditions improved. Therefore

the total zooplankton abundance in autumn is much higher than that in spring and summer. According to the saprobic indices

all the sample sites had mesosaprobic water and water quality was worse in autumn. CCA revealed that temperature accounted for most of the spatial variation in the zooplankton community. Moreover

dissolved oxygen saturation

and turbidity were important factors affecting zooplankton community distribution.
