Ecological Assessment Of Plankton Community And Affects Of Alien Species In The Southwestern Caspian Sea

The Caspian Sea ecosystem, with its high level of endemic taxa has suffered from anthropogenic pollution, changes in the quantity of nutrients, and the effects of invasive species since the 1980s. To study the temporal changes in phytoplankton and zooplankton communities, seasonal surveys were under...
