Abstract

Abstract

Planktonic copepods is an important group of zooplankton. It is of great significance to study the distribution characteristics of planktonic copepods abundance and its correlation with various environmental indicators. In this study, we analyzed environmental monitoring data of Haizhou Bay, Lianyungang, Jiangsu Province, from 2003 to 2022 using generalized additive model (GAM), to investigate the spatiotemporal variation of planktonic copepods and its correlation with other sea water indicators. The results showed that the abundance of planktonic copepods varied significantly different between seasons (p < 0.01), and the mean value of copepods was greater in spring than in summer than in autumn. The spatial distribution of abundance was generally low in the artificial reef area and high in the southern coastal area. GAM analysis showed that the main influencing factors were different between seasons. The main influencing factors in spring were dissolved oxygen, chlorophyll a concentration, ${\mathrm{SiO}}_3^- $-Si concentration and ${\mathrm{NO}}_3^- $-N concentration. The main influencing factors in summer were biochemical oxygen demand, temperature, ${\mathrm{SiO}}_3^- $-Si concentration and ${\mathrm{NH}}_4^+ $-N concentration. The main influencing factors in autumn were dissolved oxygen, salinity, suspended solids content and ${\mathrm{PO}}_4^{3-} $-P concentration. This study can provide a reference for further study of zooplankton structure and habitat suitability evaluation in artificial reef waters.
