Nutrient limitation of phytoplankton in Chesapeake Bay
This paper presents evidence of a seasonal shift from P to N as the nutrient limiting the accumulation of algal biomass in Chesapeake Bay. Following the winter/spring maximum in freshwater runoff, (1) the ratio of dissolved inorganic nitrogen to soluble reactive phosphorus (DIN/PO,) was greater than the N/P of algal biomass; (2) alkaline phosphatase activity was high; (3) phosphate turnover tim...
متن کاملPhytoplankton growth and phosphate uptake ( for P limitation ) by natural phytoplankton populations from the Loosdrecht lakes ( The Netherlands ) ’
Phosphate uptake capacity of natural phytoplankton populations was used as a physiological indicator of P limitation in the Loosdrecht lakes. During a substantial period of the growth season of 1983, P-limited growth was observed in Lake fireukeleveen and Lake Loosdrecht, but P limitation was less severe in the latter. In Lake Breukeleveen the maximum initial phosphate uptake rate (V,,) varied ...
متن کاملPhytoplankton Growth and Regulation in the Labrador Sea: Light and Nutrient Limitation
The importance of light and nutrients in regulating phytoplankton growth in the Labrador Sea was evaluating using climatological data, 12 years of measurements made as part of the Labrador Sea Monitoring Program (LSMP) and physiological information from the literature. Light limits primary production and phytoplankton growth much of the year, even during summer when surface irradiance is at its...
متن کاملPhytoplankton functional types : a trait perspective
Phytoplankton functional types are groupings of many species into a smaller number of types according to their ecological or biogeochemical role. Models describe phytoplankton functional types by a set of traits that determine their growth rates or fitness. Traits for functional types are often determined from observations on a small number of species under laboratory conditions. Functional typ...
متن کاملTrait-Based Community Ecology of Phytoplankton
Trait-based approaches are increasingly used in ecology. Phytoplankton communities, with a rich history as model systems in community ecology, are ideally suited for applying and further developing these concepts. Here we summarize the essential components of trait-based approaches and review their historical and potential application to illuminating phytoplankton community ecology. Major ecolo...
