Data already examined by regression analysis were subjected to factor analysis to scrutinize the effects of environmental factors on microbial populations in the brackish waters of the Tvärminne archipelago on the southern coast of Finland. Water samples were collected from 1.0-m depth at one point in Tvärminne Storfjärd, 71 times over about 2 years. Twenty-six parameters were determined on each sample, 10 of environmental and 16 of microbiological type. The correlations between the parameters were factorized using the principal axis solution, and eight factors chosen for further consideration were rotated by the varimax method. The major part of the variance (about 90% of the total communality) of the microbiological parameters was covered by five factors, interpreted as phytoplankton blooms, the periods before and after the blooms, freshwater outflows, and water temperature. Wind variables were components in the factors interpreted as freshwater outflows. Rainfall played a minor part in the total variance of the microbial community, but it washed yeasts and proteolytic bacteria from the land into the study area. The eight factors selected covered about 60 to 98% of the variance of the microbiological parameters. The highest values (above 90%) were obtained for direct counts of bacteria, for plate counts of mesophilic and polymyxin-resistant bacteria, and for the two community respiration parameters; the lowest values (60 to 75%) were obtained for H2 S-producing and proteolytic bacteria.
