Coastal upwelling occurred along the west coast of Guangdong in the northern South China Sea during the summer of 2006. The effects of upwelling on the vertical and horizontal distributions of Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus were investigated. A distinct vertical temperature difference between the surface water and water at a depth of 30 m was observed in the coastal upwelling region. There was a clear spatial variability of temperature, and an increasingly obvious horizontal gradient was created from the coast to offshore waters. Picophytoplankton communities observed from the coast to offshore waters were significantly different. In the coastal upwelling waters, the picophytoplankton community was dominated by Synechococcus within the euphotic zone. Prochlorococcus dominated the picophytoplankton community in the euphotic zone in the non-upwelling region. This difference in the picophytoplankton community structure was due to different hydrodynamics. The results of canonical correspondence analysis demonstrate that temperature, salinity, and phosphate concentration may be important factors affecting the distribution of Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus.
