ResumoThe aim of this study was to investigate the seasonal changes and temporal synchrony of phytoplankton community attributes (diversity and density) at four eutrophic urban reservoirs (Jardim Botânico lake, Vaca Brava Park lake, Rosas lake and Bosque dos Buritis lake) in the city of Goiânia, Goiás State. Phytoplankton diversity was estimated by the Shannon-Winner (H') index and phytoplankton density by the Utermöhl method. All lakes presented high phytoplankton diversity, ranging from H' = 0.97 (Bosque dos Buritis) to H' =4.29 (Jardim Botânico). The phytoplankton diversity of the four lakes was significantly different (F = 4.74; p < 0,001. n=4), and phytoplankton density was high, with bloom of Cyanophyceae (Bosque dos Buritis) and Chrysophyceae (Jardim Botânico). The four lakes presented low or absent synchronic phytoplankton communities (density and diversity attributes); moreover, Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) also showed that the lakes presented different phytoplankton community structures, especially Jardim Botanico, which evidenced most different phytoplankton community structure. Furthermore, the other lakes presented different phytoplankton communities over at least one sampling period. These results demonstrated the importance of local factors in the structure of the phytoplankton community, such as limnologic and geomorphologic characteristics.
