Abstract: The Botafogo estuary is of socio-economical importance for Pernambuco State. It is located at the north of Santa Cruz Channel, Itamaracá, Pernambuco, Brazil (07 o 42'50"S and 34 o 52'10"W). There is a critical need to understand its functioning because of the rate at which this area is being converted to land uses. The phytoplankton dynamics was studied to enhance the knowledge of and verify the possible changes which have occurred in this ecosystem. Sampling was carried out with a plankton net 65 micrometers … Show more

“…This is because other authors have also recorded significant relationships with some of these diatom species. For example, Cyclotella meneghiniana is known to significantly correlate with alkalinity, phosphates and water hardness (Lacerda et al, 2004). This agrees with the findings in the present study.…”

“…3), evidenciando segundo Honorato da , a forte influência das águas marinhas costeiras, o que ratifica a predominância de espécies eurialinas. Este fato foi também verificado por outros autores em áreas estuarinas (Lacerda et al 2004;Santiago et al 2004).…”

“…However, diatoms were the dominant phytoplankton group and some high density species (Helicotheca tamesis, Coscinodiscus centralis, Coscinodiscus kutzingii) were often responsible for the low diversity index. This group of species is predominant in other tropical estuaries under marine influence, probably due to their euryhaline characteristics (ESKINAZI-LEÇA et al, 2000;KOENING et al, 2003;LACERDA et al, 2004;MELO-MAGALHÃES;SANT'ANNA, 2004;ROSEVEL DA SILVA et al, 2005;GAMEIRO et al, 2007).…”
