title: Seasonal Quantitative Dynamics of Periphyton Bacillariophyta on Experimental Glass Slides Exposed Monthly in a Coastal Seawater Area of the Crimea
abstract: Seasonal dynamics of species composition, species richness (S), abundance (N), biomass (B) of periphyton diatoms were studied using Shannon (H), Pielou (e) and Barger-Parker (DBP) indices. The experimental design included a monthly exposition of glass slides made from samples of Bacillariophyta in the Karantinnaya Bay of Sevastopol from December 2010 to January 2012; temperature in the seawater ranged from 7.5 to 22.5 °C. In total, 55 taxa (3 classes, 14 orders, 24 families, 49 genera) of Bacill
