The relationship between Microcystis abundance and environmental variables was studied during a Microcystis bloom in the summer months of 2016 in an artificial lagoon of Hangzhou Bay, China. It was determined that Microcystis abundance increased from 0.16 × 104 cell/L to 5.8 × 107 cell/L within 17 days from 28 July to 14 August, contributing to 96.84–99.56% of the total phytoplankton abundance. Then, Microcystis gradually disappeared 57 days afterwards. The results showed that the growth of Microcystis, including the stage of recovery, outbreak, subsidence and disappearance, was significantly correlated with water temperature, salinity, soluble reactive phosphorus (PO4-P), dissolved inorganic nutrients (DIN), silicate (SiO4-Si), the ratio of DIN/SiO4-Si and zooplankton abundance, and the key environmental triggers which promoted the outbreak of Microcystis were water temperature, PO4-P concentration and zooplankton abundance in this artificial lagoon.
