Abstract

The seasonal variations in biomass

abundance

and species composition of plankton in relation to hydrography were studied in the saline Bange Lake

northern Tibet

China. Sampling was carried out between one to three times per month from May 2001 to July 2002. Salinity ranged from 14 to 146. The air and water temperature exhibited a clear seasonal pattern

and mean annual temperatures were approximately 4.8°C and 7.3°C

respectively. The lowest water temperature occurred in winter from December to March at -2°C and the highest in June and July at 17.7°C. Forty-one phytoplankton taxa

21 zooplankton

and 5 benthic or facultative zooplankton were identified. The predominant phytoplankton species were Gloeothece linearis

Oscillatoria tenuis

Gloeocapsa punctata

Ctenocladus circinnatus

Dunaliella salina

and Spirulina major. The predominant zooplankton species included Holophrya actra

Brachionus plicatilis

Daphniopsis tibetana

Cletocamptus dertersi

and Arctodiaptomus salinus. The mean annual total phytoplankton density and biomass for the entire lake were 4.52×107 cells/L and 1.60 mg/L

respectively. The annual mean zooplankton abundance was 52

162

322

and 57

144 ind./L

in the three sublakes. The annual mean total zooplankton biomass in Lakes 1–3 was 1.23

9.98

and 2.13 mg/L

respectively. The annual mean tychoplankton abundances in Bg1

and 3 were 47

and 654 ind./L. The annual mean tychoplankton biomass was 2.36

0.16

and 2.03 mg/L

respectively. The zooplankton biomass (including tychoplankton) in the lake was 9.11 mg/L. The total number of plankton species in the salt lake was significantly negatively correlated with salinity.
