Abstract

The flooded areas between the dunes in the «Dehesa de La Albufera» are known as «mallades». They are lagoons of limited depth (between 0.5 and 1.9 m) and variable conductivity. While the deepest lagoons are permanent, the shallowest are temporary. Phytoplankton is widely distributed and relationed with salinity and chloride concentration, except when a temporary lagoon, named Rinco?n 3, is inundated with Albufera' s water. Then, all phytoplankton that appears is the same of Albufera, and is replaced some weeks after.
