Abstract: | Annual cycles in the glucose heterotrophic potentials of the bacterioplankton of the lower Fraser River, its estuary and Georgia Strait surface waters were observed. Maximal microbial heterotrophic potentials were noted during the winter and early spring months, whereas maximal heterotrophic productivities were observed to occur during the summer and fall months. Temperature and soluble organic carbon levels appear to be the most important of the assayed physico-chemical parameters in regulating activities and productivities of the heterotrophic microbes of these waters. |
