ABSTRACT

Seasonal dynamics of the con tent and molecular-mass distribution of humic and protein-like sub stances and carbohydrates in the water of three tributaries of the Dnieper river, including the Pripyat, Zdvizh and Irpen rivers, were studied. The scheme of systematical analysis of dissolved organic matter of natural waters was used for isolating these substances. Relation ship was established between the intensity of development of phytoplankton and dynamics of the content of the above-mentioned organic compounds in the studied water courses.
