RESULTS OF PHYTOPLANKTON PIGMENTS STUDIES IN THE ZMIINYI ISLAND COASTAL WATERS IN THE BLACK SEA, 2004-2012

Abstract

The data on photosynthetic phytoplankton pigments in coastal waters of the Zmiinyi Island in 2004-2012 were analysed in details. Results of studies of Chl а, Chl b, Chl c, pheophytin a concentrations and Margalef’s pigment diversity index inter-seasonal and inter-annual changes and trends have been presented. The fact of positive trend in Chl c discovered for the first time can indicate the structural changes taking place in the Black Sea phytoplankton community during past years.
