Identification of algae by a light microscope was performed within the framework of the State Task of Moscow State University, part 2 (topic № 121032300135-7). The analysis of samples by a scanning electron microscope was performed at the equipment of the User Facilities Center of M.V. Lomonosov Moscow State University with the financial support from the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation. The analysis of the phytoplankton structure was carried out within the framework of the Interdisciplinary Scientific and Educational School of Lomonosov Moscow State University «The Future of the planet and global environmental changes»., Отбор проб выполнен в рамках Государственного задания Зоологического института РАН (№ 1021051402749-2). Идентификация водорослей под световым микроскопом выполнена в рамках Государственного задания МГУ имени М.В. Ломоносова часть 2 (тема № 121032300135-7). Анализ структуры фитопланктона выполнен в рамках Программы развития Междисциплинарной научно-образовательной школы Московского государственного университета имени М.В. Ломоносова «Будущее планеты и глобальные изменения окружающей среды».

For the first time since 1994, in March–November 2017, the dynamics of the structure and abundance of phytoplankton was studied at different depths in the White Sea. The abundance of algae varied from 3.8∙106 to 3,519∙106 cells/m3. Phytoplankton biomass ranged from 0.2 to 90 mg C/m3 and, with some e...
