The effect of elevated CO2 on growth and competition in experimental phytoplankton communities
We report an experiment designed to identify the effect of elevated CO2 on species of phytoplankton in a simple laboratory system. Major taxa of phytoplankton differ in their ability to take up CO2, which might lead to predictable changes in the growth rate of species and thereby shifts in the composition of phytoplankton communities in response to rising CO2. Six species of phytoplankton belon...
متن کاملEffects of CO2 Enrichment on Marine Phytoplankton
Rising atmospheric CO2 and deliberate CO2 sequestration in the ocean change seawater carbonate chemistry in a similar way, lowering seawater pH, carbonate ion concentration and carbonate saturation state and increasing dissolved CO2 concentration. These changes affect marine plankton in various ways. On the organismal level, a moderate increase in CO2 facilitates photosynthetic carbon fixation ...
متن کاملOcean acidification impacts bacteria–phytoplankton coupling at low-nutrient conditions
The oceans absorb about a quarter of the annually produced anthropogenic atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), resulting in a decrease in surface water pH, a process termed ocean acidification (OA). Surprisingly little is known about how OA affects the physiology of heterotrophic bacteria or the coupling of heterotrophic bacteria to phytoplankton when nutrients are limited. Previous experiments wer...
متن کاملEffect of CO2, nutrients and light on coastal plankton. I. Abiotic conditions and biological responses
We report on results of a microcosm experiment to study the interactive effects of elevated CO2, high organic and inorganic nutrient loading, and high irradiance on phytoplankton and bacterioplankton from the Mediterranean coastal ecosystem of the Alboran Sea. This experiment was part of the Group for Aquatic Productivity 9th international workshop and was conducted by Working Group 1 (WG1: Phy...
متن کاملEffects of CO2 on Growth Rate, C:N:P, and Fatty Acid Composition of Seven Marine Phytoplankton Species
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the primary substrate for photosynthesis by the phytoplankton that form the base of the marine food web and mediate biogeochemical cycling of C and nutrient elements. Specific growth rate and elemental composition (C:N:P) were characterized for 7 cosmopolitan coastal and oceanic phytoplankton species (5 diatoms and 2 chlorophytes) using low density, nutrient-replete, sem...
