Evolución del estado trófico y estructura del fitoplancton de un lago somero de la región pampeana: laguna Sauce Grande (Pcia. de Buenos Aires, Argentina)

Sauce Grande shallow lake is located in the Southwest of the Buenos Aires Province, Argentina, with the river Sauce Grande as both affluent and effluent of it. The aim of this work was to evaluate the trophic state and the characteristics of the phytoplankton community of this shallow lake during an annual cycle. Phytoplankton samples were collected monthly and also physico-chemical parameters were measured. The trophic state of the water body was estimated with Carlson Trophic State Index (TSI) based on chlorophyll a concentration. Bacillariophyta was the algal group most widely represented in number of taxa for the entire studied period. In turn, Cyanobacteria was the dominant group with Synechocystis salina Wislouch as the dominant species. Chlorophyll a concentration ranged between 64.6 and 769.4 mg/m3. The total phytoplankton abundance ranged from 1.6×106 to 5.2×106 ind/ml and the biovolume varied from 9.4×107 to 1.4×109 μm³/ml. The chlorophyll a concentration was significantly correlated with phytoplankton abundance but it was not significantly correlated with biovolume. Besides, Carlson’s TSI (Cl a) ranged from 70 to 97. Accordingly, the Sauce Grande shallow lake was classified as hypertrophic for the studied 2012-2013 period, whereas the status of the water body was determined as eutrophic for the autumn of 2010.

La laguna Sauce Grande está ubicada en el suroeste de la provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina, con el río Sauce Grande como afluente y efluente de la misma. El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar el estado trófico y las características de la comunidad del fitoplancton de esta laguna. Las muestras de fitoplancton se recolectaron mensualmente y también se midieron los parámetros físico-químicos. El estado trófico del cuerpo de agua se estimó con el índice de estado trófico de Carlson (TSI) basado en la concentración de clorofila a. Bacillariophyta fue el grupo de algas más ampliamente representado en número de taxones para todo el período estudiado. A su vez, Cyanobacteria fue el grupo dominante con Synechocystis salina Wislouch como la especie dominante. La concentración de clorofila a osciló entre 64,6 y 769,4 mg/m3. La abundancia total de fitoplancton varió de 1,6 × 106 a 5,2 × 106 ind /ml y el biovolumen varió de 9,4 × 107 a 1,4 × 109 μm³/ml. La concentración de clorofila a se correlacionó significativamente con la abundancia de fitoplancton, pero no se correlacionó significativamente con el biovolume. Además, el TSI (Cl a) de Carlson osciló entre 70 y 97. En consecuencia, el lago somero Sauce Grande se clasificó como hipertrófico para el período estudiado 2012-2013, mientras que el estado del cuerpo de agua se determinó como eutrófico para el otoño de 2010.
