Protists in naturally iron fertilized blooms
Microbial eukaryotic community composition was examined by 18S rRNA gene tag pyrosequencing, during the early phase of spring phytoplankton blooms induced by natural iron fertilization, off Kerguelen Island in the Southern Ocean (KEOPS2 cruise). A total of 999 operational taxonomical units (OTUs), affiliated to 30 known high-level 5 taxonomic groups, were retrieved from 16 samples collected in ...
متن کاملA tale of three islands: Downstream natural iron fertilization in the Southern Ocean
Iron limitation of primary productivity prevails across much of the Southern Ocean but there are exceptions; in particular, the phytoplankton blooms associated with the Kerguelen Plateau, Crozet Islands, and South Georgia. These blooms occur annually, fertilized by iron and nutrient-rich shelf waters that are transported downstream from the islands. Here we use a high-resolution (1/128) ocean g...
متن کاملImprint of a dissolved cobalt basaltic source on the Kerguelen Plateau
Processes of cobalt (Co) entrainment from shelf sediments over the Kerguelen Plateau were studied during the KEOPS (Kerguelen Ocean Plateau compared Study) in order to explain the exceptionally high dissolved cobalt concentrations that have been measured in the surface waters above the Kerguelen Plateau, and in intermediate and deep waters above its eastern slope. Lateral advection and dissolut...
متن کاملRadium isotopes to investigate the water mass pathways on the Kerguelen Plateau (Southern Ocean)
Natural iron fertilization promotes the phytoplankton bloom that takes place on the Kerguelen Plateau in the Indian sector of the Southern Ocean. We measured Ra (T1/2 1⁄4 5.75 yr) and Ra (T1/2 1⁄4 1602 yr) in waters above the Kerguelen Plateau in order to provide information on the water-mass pathways, which in turn could help elucidate the mechanisms controlling iron fertilization in that area...
متن کاملVirioplankton dynamics and virally induced phytoplankton lysis versus microzooplankton grazing southeast of the Kerguelen (Southern Ocean)
Viral dynamics, community structure, and the impact of viruses on phytoplankton mortality in comparison with microzooplankton grazing were determined in the natural iron-fertilized waters southeast of the Kerguelen Islands, Southern Ocean, during the austral summer (January–February 2005). The study area was characterized by a phytoplankton bloom above the Kerguelen Plateau and the high-nutrien...
