Dynamics of growth of natural phytoplankton and bacterioplankton in deep seawater upwelled to the upper sea layer were studied. Seawater from the lower part of the aerobic zone of the Black Sea was shown to have high bio-productive potential and can be used as an environment for algae and bacteria cultivation.
