ABSTRACT
The seasonal and spatial variation in the phytoplankton community structure and the environmental variables were investigated in December (the dry season) 2016 and July (the rainy season) 2017 in the Jinjiang River Estuary, China. We identified a total of 138 species of phytoplankton, which were mainly Chlorophyta, Bacillariophyta, and Cryptophyta in the dry season; however, in the rainy season, only Bacillariophyta were found. In the Jinjiang River Estuary, the species evenness and the biodiversity index were higher in the rainy season and that the species diversity was higher in the dry season. Redundancy analysis (RDA) revealed that the dominant species were statistically related to many of the environmental variables, including the water temperature (WT), pH, salinity (Sal), dissolved oxygen (DO), total phosphorus (TP), and total nitrogen (TN). Among the variables, the Sal, DO, TP, and TN had a significant influence on the dominant species distribution, and the WT and pH also affected the dominant species distribution to some extent.
