Zooplankton phosphorus excretion in Swarzędzkie Lake (Western Poland) and its influence on phytoplankton

Kowalczewska-Madura K., Gołdyn R., Szyper H.

Vol. 36, No.1

Zooplankton phosphorus excretion was studied in Swarzędzkie Lake in 2000-2002. Phosphorus excretion rates were high from spring through autumn, but low in winter. The highest value, 203.7 žgP l-1 d-1 (vertical profile mean), was recorded in June 2000. The mean rate was 26.6 žgP l-1 d-1 and was 10 times greater for rotifers than for both cladocerans and copepods. In most months, the calculated phosphorus excretion rate was greater than the sum of tributary external phosphorus loading and internal bottom sediment loading. Nevertheless, the influence of the zooplankton phosphorus excretion rate on yearly phytoplankton abundance, biomass and chlorophyll a was not statistically significant. Yearly variance in phytoplankton variables was best explained by a canonical variable composed of internal loading and zooplankton phosphorus excretion (total redundancy 32.8%).
