Problems of use the phytoplankton in hydrobiological monitoring of the rivers at high-urbanized territories (on the example of Moscow river)

Researches of phytoplankton in Moscow river are conducted, features of its development in the conditions of strong anthropogenic press are revealed. The character of influence on the community of current speed, water temperature and maintenance of various forms of nitrogen and phosphorus is shown. The assessment of the river water quality by phytoplankton community is carried out. Problems of using the phytoplankton in hydrobiological monitoring of the rivers at high-urbanized territories are analysed.
