title: Estimation of bacterio‐, picophyto‐ and nanophytoplankton abundance in the Middle Caspian Sea by flow cytometry
abstract: Aim. For the first time, flow cytometry has been used to study the structure and functional characteristics of bacterio‐, pico‐ and nano‐ phytoplankton in the Middle Caspian during the bloom period in early September 2022. Water samples were taken at different horizons (from the surface to the bottom layer) at a series of stations along the western coast of the Caspian Sea on the border between its northern and central parts to quantitatively assess heterotrophic bacterioplankton, picophyto‐ and
