| Abstract |
Estuarine ecosystems are important in terms of biodiversity processes because there are intense interactions between the river and sea environments. Phytoplankton and zooplankton have been shown to be ecological indicators of the water quality status in estuary ecosystems. Therefore, a comprehensive evaluation of the effects that multiple pressures have on the phytoplankton and zooplankton communities in estuarine ecosystems is essential. In this study, water samples from 29 stations were collected from the Liaohe Estuary over three different seasons, and biotic factors (i.e., phytoplankton and zooplankton) were obtained and compared. The results showed that there were significant temporal and spatial variations in the phytoplankton and zooplankton communities from the Liaohe Estuary. The correlation analyses showed that water temperature was the most important factor regulating the variation in phytoplankton communities, whereas the main driving force for the zooplankton was nutrient concentrations. Large amounts of nutrients entered the estuary in spring and summer due to intensive human activities in the Liaohe River basin. The inflows by the Liaohe River introduced some phytoplankton and zooplankton into the estuary, such as Coscinodicus asteromphalus, Chaetoceros decipiens, and Schmacheria poplesia. The impacts of Liaohe inflows on the estuary region gradually decreased as the distance from the inlet increased and this change was mediated by marine diffusion. The results from this study will improve knowledge about planktonic communities in estuarine ecosystems and provide a theoretical foundation for estuary environmental management. |
