AB  - To analyse the effects of physicochemical factors on the phytoplankton community 
      in the Bohai Sea (BS) and Yellow Sea (YS), a investigation was conducted during 
      27 July to 10 August 2020. A sum of 156 species were identified in the BS and YS, 
      including Bacillariophyta (69 species), Pyrrophyta (85 species) and Chrysophyta 
      (2 species). The phytoplankton community were divided into four provinces 
      according to Bray-Curtis similarity. In order to study the phytoplankton 
      community in the BS and YS, we studied the phytoplankton community composition 
      and their assembly mechanisms. The results showed that stochastic ecological 
      processes had a greater effect on the province C community structure. The 
      Raup-crick dissimilarity showed that deterministic factors had a greater effect 
      on the province A, B and D communities structure. The habitat niche width results 
      indicated that niche was larger in the province D, compared to the province A, B 
      and C. Based on a structural equation model (SEM), we analyzed the effects of 
      physicochemical factors on phytoplankton community structure and temperature was 
      found to affect the phytoplankton community composition and structure by the 
      vertical stratification. The result showed that temperature was an important 
      parameter for phytoplankton abundance and revealed that temperature affected 
      phytoplankton community structure by influencing the vertical stratification 
      index (VSI) in the BS and YS.
