Abstract
The activity of the community of heterotrophic bacteria in the Dead Sea water column was measured during a bloom of halobacteria in 1980-1981. With the development of the bloom, rates of incorporation of amino acids, glycerol and acetate increased. Concomitant with the decline in bacterial numbers, the incorporation rate of amino acids and acetate decreased, while glycerol uptake rates remained high. The thymidine incorporation rate was low even at the peak of the bloom, and became negligible afterwards. The results presented suggest that the bacterial community in the Dead Sea is not subjected to rapid turnover, and may remain static in a state of low activity for prolonged periods.
