The natural surface waters are widely impacted by the seasonal blooms of phytoplankton and in water rich in nutrients their developments are controlled by the climate. These proliferations modify the global quality of the water resources and the Algal Organic Matter (AOM) produced by the algae and the cyanobacteria impacts the content and the characteristics of the Natural Organic Matter (NOM). However, none study deals with the sustainable influence of the recurrent seasonal blooms of phytoplankton on the chemical quality of the water resources. The physico-chemical, chemical and biological quality of a water resource and more specifically the content and the characteristics of the NOM were thus in situ monitored in a eutrophic pond in 2017–2018 and compared to the characteristics observed in 2012–2013. The blooms of phytoplankton were more important in 2017–2018 and the increase of both the temperature of the air and the radiance promoted the domination of cyanobacteria. None significant evolution of the content in chlorophyll-a, the concentrations in nutrients and the pH was observed between 2012–2013 and 2017–2018. However, the concentrations in DOC increased, more in summer periods than winter, because of the production of AOM by the algae and the cyanobacteria and the NOM presented more hydrophilic and less aromatic characters. These evolutions of the characteristics of the NOM were more important in 2017–2018 than 2012–2013. The recurrent inputs of AOM every year in summer periods seemed thus to sustainably modify the intrinsic characteristics of the NOM.
