Abstract

The ecological state of the middle section of the Southern Bug River was assessed using the comprehensive approach. Relationship between the characteristics of phytoplankton (species number, diversity, numbers, and biomass) and the content of inorganic compounds of nitrogen and phosphorus in the water of the studied section of the river was analyzed. The factors significantly influencing phytoplankton species number were not revealed. However, several stations invite further monitoring.
