title: ASSESSMENT OF SEASONAL VARIATIONS AT THE STAGES OF PRODUCTION AND DESTRUCTION SUCCESSION IN THE MICROPLANKTON OFF THE CRIMEAN COAST AND DEEP WATERS OF THE NORTHERN BLACK SEA ON THE BASIS OF ATP AND CHLOROPHYLL α ANALYSIS
abstract: Based on the data collected during scientific expeditions of RV “Professor Vodyanitsky” in January, April, October 2016 and July 2017, spatial and temporal changes in distribution of microplankton ATP and&#13;\nchlorophyll α as indicators of metabolically active biomass and its photoautotrophic part, respectively, were analyzed. The heterotrophic-photoautotrophic index (HPI) was calculated from ratios of these biochemical parameters and used to assess the stages of production and destruction suc
