Spatial distribution and photosynthetic activity of phytoplankton in the Rybinsk Reservoir in the summer period of 2018–2020

The spatial distribution of chlorophyll a (Chl a) and photosynthetic activity coefficient (PAC) of phytoplankton in the Rybinsk Reservoir was studied using fluorescent analysis in July–August 2018–2020. Under various hydrometeorological conditions, the content of Chl a varied as 0.26–116 μg/L, avera...

description The spatial distribution of chlorophyll a (Chl a) and photosynthetic activity coefficient (PAC) of phytoplankton in the Rybinsk Reservoir was studied using fluorescent analysis in July–August 2018–2020. Under various hydrometeorological conditions, the content of Chl a varied as 0.26–116 μg/L, averaging 16.7–21.2 μg/L. The spatial distribution of Chl a in 2019 was characterized by moderate patchiness, in 2018 and 2020, by highly pronounced randomity (coefficients of variation Cv = 69, 91, and 140%, respectively). The PAC varied from 0.01 to 0.58, averaging 0.30–0.42. PAC below 0.3 were noted in 8–47% of cases, reflecting the development of phytoplankton under stressful conditions. The spatial distribution of PAC was more uniform than that of Chl a (Cv = 18–130%). PAC depended on Chl a content non-linearly (R2 = 0.50).
