INVESTIGATION ON SALTERN PLANKTON IN TANGGU SALTWORKS, TIANJIN, CHINA
Plankton plays an important role in saltern ecosystem. In this paper, the species composition and distribution of phytoplankton and zooplankton in Tanggu Saltworks, Tianjin, China was recorded during 2004 and 2005. Compared with the survey results obtained in 2002, community structures of the phytoplankton were similar; while the variety of diatoms decreased and an increase of green algae species were observed. Additionally, a new species Aphanothece sp. was found, which was not recorded in the survey of 2002. The kinds of zooplankton decreased slightly, but the community structure was basically the same. A kind of protozoa Noctiluca scintillans, an indicator for red-tide and eutrophication of the sea, was discovered in the summer survey. The survey revealed that the saltern ecosystem in Tanggu saltworks is being on the way to imbalance, thus the biological management was emphasized towards the end of the paper.
