Abstract

The influence of the sampling and processing-method accuracy on the bioindication parameters of the taxonomic and size structure of the phytoplankton community, fluorescence, and saprobic index has been studied in Rybinsk Reservoir. The studied parameters have been ranked in accordance to their sensitivity to the method accuracy. The comparative analysis of the relative errors of the studied parameters has been performed for Rybinsk Reservoir and the White Sea phytoplankton communities. Recommendations about the most useful parameters to assess the status of the phytoplankton community are given.
