Phytoplankton Studies Within the Virginia Barrier Islands I. Seasonal Study of Phytoplankton in Goose Lake, Parramore Island
نویسنده
چکیده
The phytoplankton of Goose Lake, an oligohaline lake on Parramore Island, was studied for one year. The populations consisted primarily of ultra plankton and nanoplankton sized forms with diatoms and chiorophyceans dominant most of the year. A general pattern of seasonally higher cell concentrations in early summer and fall was noted, with an unidentified ultra plankton sized component prominent throughout the collection period. A list of 154 species is given.
