cyanobacteria A. flosaquae was abundant together with filaments of Pseudanabaena sp. and colonies of Snowella sp. Among groups of relatively small plankton there was a great variety resulting in high diversity over all for this station.

hydrogen sulphide appears as a negative oxygen level. At the northern stations high levels of chlorophyll fluorescence was seen, and at BY32 a distinctive peak could be observed at 20 meters. The oxygen levels in the surface waters were above 8,5 ml/l, which indicates a high activity of plankton. At the Last updated:
