摘要: Abstract The spatial and temporal variations in phytoplankton abundance community structure the northern southern parts of Maryland Coastal Bays (MCBs) that differ anthropogenic activities hydrological characteristics were studied 2012 2013 using photosynthetic pigments as biomarkers. Phytoplankton pigment biomass diversity generally higher bays receive high nutrient input from St. Martin River, than where levels comparatively low. Sites close to mouths tributaries had levels, which favored development dinoflagellates, nano- picophytoplankton, sites closer inlets. microplankton dominated spring (>90%) decreased relative into fall (
