Iron availability limits the ocean nitrogen inventory stabilizing feedbacks between marine denitrification and nitrogen fixation
[1] Recent upward revisions in key sink/source terms for fixed nitrogen (N) in the oceans imply a short residence time and strong negative feedbacks involving denitrification and N fixation to prevent large swings in the ocean N inventory over timescales of a few centuries. We tested the strength of these feedbacks in a global biogeochemical elemental cycling (BEC) ocean model that includes wat...
متن کاملEffect of ocean acidification on iron availability to marine phytoplankton.
The acidification caused by the dissolution of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) in the ocean changes the chemistry and hence the bioavailability of iron (Fe), a limiting nutrient in large oceanic regions. Here, we show that the bioavailability of dissolved Fe may decline because of ocean acidification. Acidification of media containing various Fe compounds decreases the Fe uptake rate of diat...
متن کاملMicrobial Community Composition Impacts Pathogen Iron Availability during Polymicrobial Infection
Iron is an essential nutrient for bacterial pathogenesis, but in the host, iron is tightly sequestered, limiting its availability for bacterial growth. Although this is an important arm of host immunity, most studies examine how bacteria respond to iron restriction in laboratory rather than host settings, where the microbiome can potentially alter pathogen strategies for acquiring iron. One of ...
متن کاملOptimize Coastal Ocean Prediction System (COPS)
Mooers (1999) defined ”coastal ocean” to include a 200 nautical mile wide Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), determined by United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). This covers a major part of the European coastal seas (Mediterranean, North Sea, Irish Sea, Baltic Sea) and part of European shelf seas. Since EEZ is also of high national interests in marine resource exploitation and en...
متن کاملOcean microbial metagenomics
Technology for accessing the genomic DNA of microorganisms, directly from environmental samples without prior cultivation, has opened new vistas to understanding microbial diversity and functions. Especially as applied to soils and the oceans, environments on Earth where microbial diversity is vast, metagenomics and its emergent approaches have the power to transform rapidly our understanding o...
