Abstract:ABSTRACT Seasonal changes in phytoplankton community structure of Kuzgun reservoir, a high mountain reservoir, were studied during the ice-free period in 2000 and 2001. Bacillariophyta was the dominant group, followed by Chlorophyta and Dinophyta. The dominant species were Synedra delicatissima, Asterionella formosa, Fragilaria crotonensis, Cyclotella kützingiana, Cyclotella ocellata, Oocystis borgei, Staurastrum longiradiatum, Ankistrodesmus falcatus, Ceratium hirundinella, and Peridinium cinctum. Maximum phytoplankton density was observed in late spring.ABSTRACT Seasonal changes in phytoplankton community structure of Kuzgun reservoir, a high mountain reservoir, were studied during the ice-free period in 2000 and 2001.
