Method Step

Description

Water phytoplankton samples were preserved with Lugol (15 ml/l of sample). These samples were observed with a Nikon Diaphot T300E inverted-microscope following Utermöhl (1985) method, at 400x magnification. Samples were divided into sub-samples and 200 organisms for each sample were used for taxonomic identification and cell size / abundance computations. Phytoplankton counts and morphometric measurements were performed semi-automatically using a video-interactive image analysis system (L.U.C.I.A, Laboratory Imaging) connected to the microscope. Taxonomic identification was carried out using several references.

Sampling

Sampling Description

The sampling design was as follows: 10 times, 6 stations and 1 replicate for sampling site.

Water samples were collected, from April to September 2003, by a Ruttner bottle of 1 liter. Samples were collected only at the surface because of low depth of the water. Station 1 represented the negative control being placed at the harbour entrance whereas the stations 5 and 6 were the most impacted by the maritime traffic.
