High-resolution 16S rRNA tag pyrosequencing was used to obtain seasonal snapshots of the bacterial diversity and community structure at two locations in Gosung Bay (South Sea, Korea) over a one year period. Seasonal sampling from the water column at each site revealed highly diverse bacterial communities containing up to 900 estimated Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs). The  Alphaproteobacteria  and  Gammaproteobacteria  were the most abundant groups, and the most frequently recorded OTUs were members of  Pelagibacter  and  Glaciecola . In particular, it was observed that  Arcobacter , a genus of the  Epsilonproteobacteria , dominated during summer. In addition,  Psedoalteromonadaceae ,  Vibrionaceae  and SAR11-1 were predominant members of the OTUs found in all sampling seasons. Environmental factors significantly influenced the bacterial community structure among season, with the phosphate and nitrate concentrations contributing strongly to the spatial distribution of the  Alphaproteobacteria ; the  Gammaproteobacteria ,  Flavobacteria , and  Actinobacteria  all showed marked negative correlations with all measured nutrients, particularly silicon dioxide and chlorophyll-a. The results suggest that seasonal changes in environmental variables contribute to the dynamic structure of the bacterial community in the study area.
