Title:	Changes of summer phytoplankton communities in Lake Swarzędzkie in the 2000-2003 period
Authors:	Gołdyn Ryszard Kowalczewska-Madura Katarzyna Stefaniak Karolina
Abstract:	The aim of this study was to characterize the summer phytoplankton communities in the hypertrophic Lake Swarzędzkie in the 2000-2003 period and to determine their connection with the physico-chemical parameters of water quality. The highest abundance of phytoplankton and the highest concentrations of chlorophyll a were noted in summer 2003 during a bloom of Oscillatoriaceae. The extremely high biomass of Cyanobacteria corresponded with the highest water temperature and nitrate values. The total biomass was the highest in August 2002, but this was due to the dominance of Dinophyta. Oscillations in phytoplankton abundance and biomass in Lake Swarzędzkie in the summers of 2000-2003 as well as the different structure of dominant species in each year resulted in the instability of the ecosystem.
