The structure and productivity of planktonic microbial communities in the ecosystems of the Siberian Arctic seas are significantly dependent on freshwater input. During the study, we determined the spatial distribution of the abundance, biomass, and production of heterotrophic bacterioplankton in the Western Laptev Sea on the transect from the Khatanga River estuary to the continental slope and assessed the impact of river freshwater discharge. The influence of fresh water on bacterioplankton was restricted mainly to Khatanga Bay (KHAB) and the transitional zone (TZ) and was poorly recognized in the Western shelf (WS) and continental slope (CS) areas. The total bacterial abundance decreased from KHAB to the CS. Particle-attached bacteria constituted on average 63.0% of the total abundance of bacterioplankton in KHAB and 1.0% at the CS. Average bacterial production in the water column was highest in KHAB (10.3 mg C m−3 d−1), decreasing towards the CS (0.7 mg C m−3 d−1). In KHAB and TZ, bacteria were the main component of the planktonic community (44−55%). These results show that at the end of the growing season, bacterial processes prevailed over autotrophic ones and contributed largely to the total biological carbon flux in the coastal ecosystem of the Western Laptev Sea. |
