摘要

Our study explores the variability of chlorophyll a and phycocyanin as well as the taxonomic and functional structure of phytoplankton in epilimnetic and metalimnetic strata regarding the main environmental features of the water column. The maximum phytoplankton pigment concentrations are located differently depending on the type of thermal stratification and light availability. In general, there were three situations observed during the summer stratification: the euphotic zone did not extend to the thermocline and the highest chlorophyll concentration developed above the thermocline level, at the bottom of the euphotic zone (type I); the euphotic zone reached beyond the thermocline, and the maximum chlorophyll concentration occurred above the thermocline (type II); or the euphotic zone was much greater than the thermocline depth and the peak phytoplankton density was located below the thermocline (type III). In metalimnetic samples, the most dominant cyanobacteria belonged to the Reynolds Functional Groups (RFG) H1, S1 , and Lo ; their occurrence differed depending on the types of light and thermal regimes. It was assumed that vertical heterogeneity affects the ecological status assessment based on phytoplankton. Calculating the two applied indices (TI index and Q index) based on metalimnetic and epilimnetic data (as opposed to only epilimnetic data) yielded worse ecological status in > 70 of cases.
