A microbiological investigation was carried out in the Pomeranian Bay in 1996-1997 to determine the spatial and seasonal changes in the numbers, biomass and productivity of bacterioplankton. Substantial differences in the spatial distribution of bacterioplankton populations were found. At the stations in the coastal zone of the Pomeranian Bay numbers, biomass and production of bacteria were high, with maximum values noted at the mouth of the river Swina. This is indicative of the significant impact of riverine waters on the bacterioplankton in the Pomeranian Bay. Seasonal fluctuations and bacterial microflora activity were recorded. The dynamics of the changes showed that most of the bacteriological parameters examined reached their maximum in summer while minimum values were noted in winter.
