Hydrobiological characteristics of the Bugazsky Spit coastal waters
Results of hydrobiological studies of the Bugazsky Spit coastal waters (the Black Sea, Bugazsky estuary and Bugazsky Liman) are presented. 43 species of phytoplankton, 12 species of zooplankton and 9 species of macrozoobenthos were recorded. In the studied area, the phytoplankton abundance ranged from 6.3 to 11.2 million cells/m3, its biomass was from 18.0 to 79.3 mg/m3, the respective values for zooplankton ranged from 108,080 to 129,760 ind./m3 and from 39.0 to 323.8 mg/m3, while those of macrozoobenthos were from 133 to 1067 ind./m2 and from 0.1 to 948.9 g/m2. All zooplankton should be considered as fodder organisms. The biomass of fodder fraction of the zoobenthos amounted to 0.1–25.4 g/m2.

species of macrozoobenthos were recorded. In the studied area, the phytoplankton abundance ranged from 6.3 to 11.2 million cells/m3, its biomass was from 18.0 to 79.3 mg/m3, the respective values for zooplankton ranged from 108,080 to 129,760 ind./m3 and from 39.0 to 323.8 mg/m3, while those of macrozoobenthos were from 133 to 1067 ind./m2 and from 0.1 to 948.9 g/m2.
