Abstract

Abstract

An investigation was carried out in the Huanghai Sea and the East China Sea to reveal the quantitative relationship between the density of flagellates and suspended paticles in the summer of 2001.The results show that the density of flagellates varies from 44 to 12 600 ind./cm³,which can reach a large percentage of the suspended particles.The spectra of the suspended particles can be divided into four types as follow:flat spectra,humped spectra,plankton spectra,and mixed spectra.The density of flagellates va-ries in proportion to that of the suspended particles.As a whole,the correlation between flagellates and the suspended particles is obvious,and more characteristics are showed in different types of spectra.The relationship is discussed,hoping for exploring a new approach for the estimation of flagellate abundance in the sea.
