This study demonstrates both prokaryotic and eukaryotic community structures dominant taxonomies in different positions of the greatest estuary reservoir for drinking water source world four seasons one year using 454 pyrosequencing method with total 312,949 16S rRNA 374,752 18S gene fragments, including 1,652 bacteria OTUs 1,182 fungus OTUs. During winter spring, composition at phylum level showed that microorganisms had similar but their quantities were different. Similarly, obvious changes genus observed among samples taken spring between summer fall. Microorganisms located inlet founded to be from those rear level. Air temperature a stronger effect than sampling location on microbial structure. Total nitrogen dissolved oxygen algae-monitoring indicators during whole year. Moreover, Bacillus was an efficient indicator autumn
