    Notes: Abstract In the thirteen years of quantitative studies on the microbiology of the Dead Sea from 1980 onwards three distinct periods can be discerned. Mass development of the green unicellular algaDunaliella parva (up to 8,800 cells/ml) and red archaeobacteria (2×107 cells/ml) was observed in 1980, following a dilution of the upper water layers by rain floods. This bloom disappeared at the end of 1982 as a result of a complete mixing of the water column. During the period 1983–1991 the lake was holomictic, and noDunaliella cells were observed. Viable bacteria were present during this period in very low numbers. Heavy rain floods during the winter of 1991–1992 caused a new stratification as the upper five meters of the water column became diluted to 70% of their normal salinity. In this upper water layerDunaliella reappeared (up to 3×104 cells/ml at the beginning of May, rapidly declining to less than 40 cells/ml at the end of July), and a bloom of red archaeobacteria (3×107 cells/ml) once more imparted a red coloration to the lake.

    Notes: Abstract In a previous paper we attempted to assess the contribution of red bacteria of theHalobacterium — Haloferax — Haloarcula group and of the β-carotene-rich green algaDunaliella salina to the red colour of saltern crystallizer ponds. By means of light absorption measurements, we showed that bacterioruberin contained in the bacteria was mainly responsible for the colour of the brines, in spite of the fact that β-carotene derived fromDunaliella was the pigment present in the greatest amount. This apparent discrepancy was explained by the very smallin vivo optical cross-section of β-carotene, which is densely packed in globules inside theD. salina cells. We recently observed that the centrifugation technique used in the previous study to collect biomass from the ponds was unsuitable for this type of measurements, as a substantial part of theDunaliella cells present did not sediment upon centrifugation due to the low specific gravity caused by the high β-carotene content. Therefore similar measurements were performed with biomass collected by filtration. Again,in vivo absorption spectra were dominated by the absorption peaks of bacterioruberin. The results reported here show that, in spite of the methodological problem associated with the earlier study, all views and conclusions expressed in our earlier paper retain their validity.

    Notes: Abstract A bloom of the unicellular green alga Dunaliella parva (up to 15 000 cells m1−1) developed in the upper 5 m of the water column of the Dead Sea in May-June 1992. This was the first mass development of Dunaliella observed in the lake since 1980, when another bloom was reported (up to 8800 cells m1−1). For a bloom of Dunaliella to develop in the Dead Sea, two conditions must be fulfilled: the salinity of the upper water layers must become sufficiently low as a result of dilution with rain floods, and phosphate must be available. During the period 1983–1991 the lake was holomictic, hardly any dilution with rainwater occurred, and no Dunaliella cells were observed. Heavy rain floods in the winter of 1991–1992 caused a new stratification, in which the upper 5 m of the water column became diluted to about 70% of their former salinity. Measurements of the isotopic composition of inorganic carbon in the upper water layer during the bloom (δ13C = 5.1‰) indicate a strong fractionation when compared with the estimated −3.4‰ prior to the bloom. The particulate organic carbon formed was highly enriched in light carbon isotopes (δ 13 C = − 13.5‰). The algal bloom rapidly declined during the months June–July, probably as a result of the formation of resting stages, which sank to the bloom. A smaller secondary bloom (up to 1850 cells m1−1) developed between 6 and 10 m depth at the end of the summer. Salinity values at this deep chlorophyll maximum were much beyond those conductive for the growth of Dunaliella, and the factors responsible for the development of this bloom are still unclear.

    Notes: Abstract After a period of more than ten years in which bacterial and algal community sizes were extremely small, a dense bloom of halophilic archaea developed in the upper 5–10 m of the Dead Sea water column in the summer of 1992. The development of this bloom followed a dilution of the upper water layer by winter rainfloods, which enabled the development of a short-lived dense bloom of the unicellular green alga Dunaliella parva. The dense archaeal community (up to 3.5 × 107 cells m1−1 in June 1992) imparted a red coloration to the Dead Sea, due to its high content of bacterioruberin. Bacteriorhodopsin was not detected. High levels of potential heterotrophic activity were associated with the bloom, as measured by the incorporation of labeled organic substrates. After the decline of the algal bloom, archaeal numbers in the lake decreased only little, and most of the community was still present at the end of 1993. The amount of carotenoid pigment per cell, however, decreased 2–3-fold between June 1992 and August 1993. No new algal and archaeal blooms developed after the winter floods of 1992–1993, in spite of the fact that salinity values in the surface layer were sufficiently low to support a new algal bloom. A remnant of the 1992 Dunaliella bloom maintained itself at the lower end of the pycnocline at depths between 7 and 13 m (September 1992–August 1993). Its photosynthetic activity was small, and very little stimulation of archaeal growth and activity was associated with this algal community.
