Phytoplankton diversity is in the order of Chlorophyta Bacillariophyceae Cyanophyta Chrysophyceae Euglenophyta Phyrrhophyta; but the order in terms or abundance is Cyanophyta Chrysophyceae Chlorophyceae Bacillario-phyceae. The brown water system of Paya Bungor seems to contain a higher phytoplankton production than the white water system. Maximum production generally occurs at the top layer of the water but shifts to the subsurface layers on hot days due to photo-inhibition at the surface. Generally nutrient and light energy are the two most important factors controlling phytoplankton production in Paya Bungor

Abstract

Phytoplankton diversity is in the order of Chlorophyta Bacillariophyceae Cyanophyta Chrysophyceae Euglenophyta Phyrrhophyta; but the order in terms or abundance is Cyanophyta Chrysophyceae Chlorophyceae Bacillario-phyceae. The brown water system of Paya Bungor seems to contain a higher phytoplankton production than the white water system. Maximum production generally occurs at the top layer of the water but shifts to the subsurface layers on hot days due to photo-inhibition at the surface. Generally nutrient and light energy are the two most important factors controlling phytoplankton production in Paya Bungor
