Abstract
The influence of sea ice on the species composition and cell density of phytoplankton was investigated in the eastern Bering Sea in spring 2008 Diatoms particularly pennate diatoms dominated the phytoplankton community The dominant species were Grammonema islandica Grunow in Van Heurck Hasle Fragilariopsis cylindrus Grunow Krieger F oceanica Cleve Hasle Navicula vanhoeffenii Gran Thalassiosira antarctica Comber T gravida Cleve T nordenskiöeldii Cleve and T rotula Meunier Phytoplankton cell densities varied from 008×104 to 4288×104 cells/L with an average of 303×104 cells/L Using cluster analysis phytoplankton were grouped into three assemblages defined by iceforming conditions open water ice edge and sea ice assemblages In spring when the sea ice melts the phytoplankton dispersed from the sea ice to the ice edge and even into open waters Thus these phytoplankton in the sea ice may serve as a “seed bank” for phytoplankton population succession in the subarctic ecosystem Moreover historical studies combined with these results suggest that the sizes of diatom species have become smaller shifting from microplankton to nannoplanktondominated communities
