摘要

Abstract

To better understand the physicochemical conditions in affecting regional distribution of phytoplankton community

one research cruise was carried out in the Bohai Sea and Yellow Sea during 3rd and 23th May

2010. The phytoplankton community

including Bacillariophyta (105 taxa)

Pyrrophyta (54 taxa)

Chrysophyta (1 taxon) and Chlorophyta (2 taxa)

had been identified and clearly described from six ecological provinces. And

the six ecological provinces were partitioned based on the top twenty dominant species related with notable physicochemical parameters. In general

the regional distributions of phytoplankton ecological provinces were predominantly influenced by the physicochemical properties induced by the variable water masses and circulations. The predominant diatoms in most of water samples showed well adaptability in turbulent and eutrophic conditions. However

several species of dinoflagellates e.g.

Protoperidinium conicum

Protoperidinium triestinum

Protoperidinium sp. and Gymnodinium lohmanni preferred warmer

saltier and nutrient-poor environment. Moreover

the dinoflagellates with high frequency in the Yellow Sea might be transported from the Yellow Sea Warm Current. The horizontal distribution of phytoplankton was depicted by diatoms and controlled by phosphate concentration

while the vertical distribution was mainly supported by light and nutrients availability in the subsurface and bottom layers

respectively.
