Usos e qualidade da água em região semi-árida do nordeste brasileiro: percepção ambiental de professores e alunos. 2009. 90 f. Dissertação (Mestrado em Meio Ambiente, Cultura e Desenvolvimento) - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2009.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/jspui/handle/123456789/18209Density and biomass of bacterioplankton in parts of the Marechal Dutra reservoir were studied in periods of dry and rainy season. The averages of the total bacterial densities oscillated in the order of 107 organisms/ mL of sample. The cocci cells were numerically predominant, influencing considerably the total abundance of the bacterioplankton. The total bacterial biomass, was considered raised and varied from 2.431,82 to 2.739,01 μgC.L-1, in function of the high values of biovolume of the filaments forms, and showed no marked spacial fluctuation. These high values of density and biomass alert for the necessity of a frequent monitoring of aquatic ecosystems of semi-arid region, where the quality of the water is affected by the occurrence of extensive dry periods, influencing considerably the quality of life of its populationapplication/pdfAcesso AbertoBactériasQualidade de águaAmbientes eutrofizadosEcossistemas aquáticosBacteriaQuality of waterEutrophic environmentsAquatic ecosystemsmasterThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS BIOLOGICAS::ECOLOGIA
