Dry And Rainy Seasons

Phytoplankton samples were collected in 2016 during the dry and rainy seasons at nine sampling sites in Vinh Long province, Vietnam. Some basic environment parameters such as temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, nitrate and phosphate were measured and a total of 209 phytoplankton species (six phyla, 96 genera) were identified. The phylum that had the greatest number of species was Bacillariophyta (82 species), followed by Chlorophyta (61 species), Cyanophyta (39 species), Euglenophyta (21 species), Chrysophyta (three species) and Dinophyta (three3 species). The phytoplankton density ranged from 4,128 to 123,029 cells/liter. The dominant algae recorded in the study area include Microcystis aeruginosa, Merismopedia glauca, Oscillatoria perornata, Jaaginema sp., Planktothrix agardhii, Coscinodiscus subtilis, Melosira granulata. In particular, Microcystis aeruginosa was the most density dominant species in the total number of sampling sites during the dry season survey, and this species was classified as a group producing toxins harmful to the environment. Surface water quality, according to QCVN 08: 2015/BTNMT was classified into Column A1 for pH, nitrate and Column B1 for dissolved oxygen, and Column B2 for phosphate. Phytoplankton community structure and environmental factors changed substantially between dry and rainy seasons. A Pearson (r) correlation coefficient was used for the relative analysis. The results indicated that the number of phytoplankton species were a significantly positive correlation with pH, dissolved oxygen and nitrate in the rainy season. The phytoplankton abundance was uncorrelated with environmental factors in both seasons. Các mẫu thực vật phù du được thu thập trong năm 2016 (mùa khô và mùa mưa) tại 9 vị trí ở tỉnh Vĩnh Long, Việt Nam. Một số thông số môi trường như nhiệt độ, pH, oxy hòa tan, nitrat và phốt phát được đo ngay tại hiện trường. Tổng cộng 209 loài thực vật phù du được ghi nhận (6 ngành, 96 chi). Số lượng loài cao nhất là tảo Silic (82 loài), kế đến là tảo Lục (61 loài), tảo Lam (39 loài), tảo Mắt (21 loài), tảo Vàng ánh (3 loài) và tảo Giáp (3 loài). Mật độ thực vật phù du dao động từ 4.128 đến 123.029 tế bào/ lít. Các loài ưu thế ghi nhận được ở khu vực nghiên cứu gồm có: Microcystis aeruginosa, Merismopedia glauca, Oscillatoria perornata, Jaaginema sp., Planktothrix agardhii; Coscinodiscus subtilis, Melosira granulata. Trong đó, loài Microcystis aeruginosa chiếm ưu thế nhiều nhất trên tổng số điểm thu mẫu trong đợt khảo sát mùa khô, đồng thời loài này được xếp vào nhóm sản sinh độc tố gây hại cho môi trường. Chất lượng nước mặt theo QCVN 08:2015/BTNMT được xếp vào loại A1 đối với thông số pH, nitrat và loại B1 đối với thông số oxy hòa tan, và loại B2 đối với phốt phát. Cấu trúc quần xã thực vât nổi và các yếu tố môi trường thay đổi đáng kể giữa mùa mưa và mừa khô. Hệ số tương quan Pearson (r) được dùng để phân tích. Kết quả cho thấy số lượng thực vật phù du có tương quan thuận với pH, oxy hòa tan và nitrat trong mùa mưa và có ý nghĩa về mặt thống kê. Mật độ của thực vật phù du không tương quan với các yếu tố môi trường trong cả hai mùa.

The aim of this paper is to determine and compare the environmental factors controlling longitudinal colonisation of periphytic algae in agricultural and urbanization effects of a lowland river, the Tundzha River, located in Turkish Tunca. To investigate the effect of the environmental factors on periphyton colonization at the river, 6 stations were selected and samples were collected between April 2012 and March 2013. Canonical correspondence analyses have been applied to clarify relationships between environmental variables and periphytic algae. During the study, the Shannon-Wiener diversity index (H′) varied from 1.62 to 3.91. The phytoplankton biovolume was positively related to pH, temperature, salinity, chlorophyll- a and nutrients, and was negatively correlated with dissolved oxygen, turbidity, and silicate. Out of the 5 divisions and of 73 identified species of phytoplankton, the diatoms, namely Fragilaria ulna, Cymbella tumida, Cocconeis placentula, Gomphonema acuminatum and Cymbella cystula were found to be dominant. In addition to these species, the biovolumes of filamentous diatom Melosira varians, filamentous blue-green algae Oscillatoria limosa, and placcoderm desmids Cosmarium botrytis were determined to be at high levels during the year. The euglenoid blooms in St.5 showed many times during the study period.

Based on the Jihogntan reservoir’s monitoring data from 2006 to 2009, eutrophication of Jihongtan reservoir was assessed. The result showed that the nutrition level of the Jihongtan reservoir was middle in recent years. The average concentration of chlorophyll-a(Chla) was higher in summer and autumn than in spring and winter. The correlation between concentration of Chla and some environmental factors was studied by statistical method, and seasonal variation of Chla and the extent of eutrophication were also analyzed. The results showed that the correlations between Chla and total nitrogen(TN), dissolved oxygen(DO) and transparency were significantly negative, and that between Chla and total phosphorus(TP), temperature(T) and potassium permanganate index(COD Mn) were significantly positive. The growth of phytoplankton was promoted by TP and TN at low concentrations, and inhibited by TN at high concentrations.

Based on the environmental survey data in off-shore of Qin Huangdao from May to June 2011,correlation analysis was made between population density of Noctiluca scintillans and environmental factors. The results indicates that population density of Noctiluca scintillans does not exist linear correlation with nitrite, nitrate, ammonia, nitrogen, phosphate,dissolved oxygen and PH ,it is positive correlation with temperature and silicate noctiluca and negatively correlation with transparency and salinity.

Demographic Responses

Tropical waterbodies contain several species of toxic cyanobacteria including Microcystis, which adversely affect the somatic growth, survival and fecundity of zooplankton. Scenedesmus, one of the most common green algae, is even found in Microcystis -dominated waterbodies. It is, therefore possible that in natural ponds, rotifers and cladocerans feed on mixed phytoplankton species containing algae and cyanobacteria. In this work, we quantified demographic responses of three rotifer species (Brachionus calyciflorus, B. rubens, and Plationus patulus), and three cladoceran species (Simocephalus mixtus, Daphnia cf. mendotae and Moina macrocopa) fed toxic Microcystis aeruginosa only or mixed with Scenedesmus acutus. The highest population growth for both rotifer and cladoceran species was observed when Scenedesmus was offered alone or at 75 % of the diet. Daphnia cf. mendotae and B. rubens were less affected by Microcystis while M. macrocopa and B. calyciflorus were more adversely influenced, which was also corroborated by life table demography. In competition bioassays, D. cf. mendotae was more efficient, alone or in competition, when fed with 50 or 25 % of Microcystis. This work explains the dynamics of the zooplanktonic community against gradual changes in phytoplankton due to the presence of cyanobacteria.
