During the investigated period, significant impacts of precipitation and freshwater input on temperature and salinity values were observed in most parts of the Boka Kotorska Bay. Freshwater input also had an impact on nutrient and chlorophyll concentration during the investigated period. The recorded values of phytoplankton are characteristic for oligo-mesotrophic areas. Species that are characteristic for nutrients enriched areas were also recorded. The presence of species that prefer areas rich in nutrients as well as the presence of toxic species, although in smaller numbers, indicate changes that should not be neglected.
