Physicochemical environments and phytoplankton community in the nakdong river middle basin were investigated during a period of 1 year from Nov. 1993 to Oct. 1994. The ranges of Physicochemical environment factors in the nakdong river middle basin were $3.6~27.4{circ}C$ for temperature, 7.1~9.3 for pH, $7.1~12.7mg/{ell}$for DO, $0.7~2.1mg/{ell}$ for BOD, $31~52mg/{ell}$ for alkalinity, $2.101~3.3mg/{ell}$ for T-N, $0.052~0.099mg/{ell}$ for T-p, $5.4~92.3mg/m^{3}$ for chlorophyll-a. The number of Phytoplankton was lowest in Jan. that is, 244ce11s/ml and that was highest in Sep. 1201 cells/ml. The increase of dominant genera were correlated with the total nomber of phytoplanktons. Bacillariaceae, chlorophyceae, cyanophyceae, and euglenophlrceae were to 74.5%, 20%, 3.5%, and 2.2% respectively. Bacillariaceae were abundant during all the year round except for Jun, Jul, Aug. Chlorophyceae were plentiful in Jun, Jul, Aug. Tase-and odor-causing algae and filter clogging algae were 72% in Nov. and 93.5% in Jun. They were abundant all the year round except for winter, so they influenced on the treatment of tap water system. They belong to the general asterionella, cyclotella, melosira, nitzschia of bacillariaceae and actinastrum, pediastrum of chlorophyceae. Dominace index was low in winter and high in umber. Diversity index and equitability index were low in summer and high in winter. Therefore, the structure of phytoplankton community of the nakdong river middle basin was different form season to season.
