CHAPTER ONE
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Plankton is the foundation of the oceans food wed the word
plankton comes from a Greek word plankton which means drifting plankton
are organism drifting in column of the oceans seas and bodies of fresh
water.
Plankton are made of both plant origin (phytoplankton) and
animal origin (zooplankton) however they form the early foods for fish.
The productivity of any water body is determine by the amount of
plankton it contain as they are the major primary and secondary
producer (pavis et al 2009)
In the last three decades several studies on the phytoplankton
and zoo plankton of Nigeria freshwater and brakish water bodies have
been carried out but few studies on the marine environment have been
reported (Opute 1985).
Large phytoplankton creeks tends to be grazed by large
phytoplankton resulting in shorter simplier foods wed and more efficient
matters and energy transfer to large consumer (Tremply el al zone
)plankton occurs naturally in water bodies and abundant quantity of
plankton can be raised in concrete tanks and earthen pond
(niffr,2001).however the abundant of plankton that are found in water
body is basically dependence in the percentage of pollution that
migrate its growth that is plankton abundance is affects by percentage
of pollution Tremble et al 2004) Weiss and Stockner (1993) observed
that energy in palegic ecosystem flow from phytoplankton the primary
producer to zooplankton the consumer through the classical foods chain
and microbial foods weds modes that use phytoplankton primary
production as the main controlling variable fish predicting fish yield
in lakes and reservoirs’ has resulted in more successful prediction
than many other method (Knosche and Barthelme’s 1998)
There is a range of chemical physical and biological competent
that affect water quality. Some of which could provide a general
indication of water pollution while other enable the direct tracking of
pollution sources these indication include not only its physiochemical
characteristics but also aquatic organism and biochemical techniques
sequel to this many group of organism have been used as indicators of
water quality bodies including algae macrophysics protozoa fish and
other animal.
Plankton which are all those group of tiny float drift or
freely of feeble swim in water column independent of the shore and
bottom occupy the base level of foods chains (autotrophs) that lead up
to commercial important fisheries have severally been used as biv
indicators or water quality.
Additionally, plankton communities, play a major role in the
biogeo-chemical cycles of many important elements such as the carbon
cycles nitrification demineralization and metuanogenesis.
These circles brings about such process as primary production and recycling
1.2. Objective of the study
The studies have the following objectives.
- To identity the plankton assemblage in anwai river delta state.
- To know which plankton is more abundance.
- To know how the assemblage affected by the water quality.
