Abstract

Data on phytoplankton structure and physical-chemical parameters of the waters of the Anаbar, a large river of the Arctic basin, were obtained for the first time, The patterns of development of plankton algal groupings and the formation of the hydrochemical water regime in different sites of the river were determined. We also found a decrease in water quality at the river site where the enterprises of mining industry operate. The background data on the structure of phytoplankton and physicochemical parameters of the upper part of the Anabar will be the basis for monitoring under the industrial development of this river part in future.
