The article presents data from spring hydrobiological studies in the Makhachkala l Seaport during the period of dredging. It is noted that plankton of the studied water area of the Caspian Sea is a typical community of the spring period, formed mainly by marine and brackish-water species of phytoplankton and zooplankton. Diatoms mainly dominate in phytoplankton, and Copepods in zooplankton, where the main dominant is the Azov-Black sea invader Acartia tonsa Dana,1843. The analysis of planktonic communities indicates a rather developed quantitative and qualitative community of aquatic organisms with a characteristic abundance of species inhabiting it in the spring, despite a significant anthropogenic influence. It is established that the ongoing dredging operations do not have a tangible effect on the productivity of planktonic organisms.
