Latitudinal Gradients in Degradation of Marine Dissolved Organic Carbon
Heterotrophic microbial communities cycle nearly half of net primary productivity in the ocean, and play a particularly important role in transformations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC). The specific means by which these communities mediate the transformations of organic carbon are largely unknown, since the vast majority of marine bacteria have not been isolated in culture, and most measurem...
متن کاملThe influence of dissolved organic carbon on bacterial phosphorus uptake and bacteria– phytoplankton dynamics in two Minnesota lakes
The balance of production in any ecosystem is dependent on the flow of limiting nutrients into either the autotrophic or heterotrophic components of the food web. To understand one of the important controls on the flow of inorganic nutrients between phytoplankton and bacterioplankton in lakes, we manipulated dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in two lakes of different trophic status. We hypothesize...
متن کاملLarge Stimulation of Recalcitrant Dissolved Organic Carbon Degradation by Increasing Ocean Temperatures
More than 96% of organic carbon in the ocean is in the dissolved form, most of it with lifetimes of decades to millennia. Yet, we know very little about the temperature sensitivity of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) degradation in a warming ocean. Combining independent estimates from laboratory experiments, oceanographic cruises and a global ocean DOC cycling model, we assess the relationship be...
متن کاملBiochemical composition of dissolved organic carbon derived from phytoplankton and used by heterotrophic bacteria.
The molecular size distribution and biochemical composition of the dissolved organic carbon released from natural communities of lake phytoplankton (photosynthetically produced dissolved organic carbon [PDOC]) and subsequently used by heterotrophic bacteria were determined in three lakes differing in trophic status and concentration of humic substances. After incubation of epilimnetic lake wate...
متن کاملTemperature Dependence of Photodegradation of Dissolved Organic Matter to Dissolved Inorganic Carbon and Particulate Organic Carbon
Photochemical transformation of dissolved organic matter (DOM) has been studied for more than two decades. Usually, laboratory or "in-situ" experiments are used to determine photodegradation variables. A common problem with these experiments is that the photodegradation experiments are done at higher than ambient temperature. Five laboratory experiments were done to determine the effect of temp...
