Concentrations of terrestrially derived dissolved organic matter (DOM) have been increasing in many north temperate and boreal lakes for over two decades. The concentration of DOM in lakes is influenced by a number of environmental factors, but there is still considerable debate about how the availability of terrestrial DOM, and associated dissolved nitrogen and phosphorus, may be affected by drivers of climatic change. Using experimental and observational methods, we considered how changes in soil temperature and moisture affected the composition of carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus entering freshwater lakes. In our experiment, organic soil cores were collected from the wetland shoreline of a darkly-stained seepage lake in northern Wisconsin, USA and manipulated in laboratory with temperature and moisture treatments. During the 28-day study, soil leachate was sampled and analyzed for optical properties of DOM via UV/Vis absorbance, as well as concentrations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), total dissolved nitrogen, and total dissolved phosphorus (TDP). DOM optical properties were particularly sensitive to moisture, with drier scenarios resulting in DOM of lower molecular weight and aromaticity. Warmer temperatures led to lower DOC and TDP concentrations. To consider long-term relationships between climate and lake chemical properties, we analyzed long-term water chemistry data from two additional Wisconsin lakes from the long term ecological research (LTER) project in a cross correlation analysis with Palmer drought severity index data. Analysis of the LTER data supported our experimental results that soil moisture has a significant effect on the quality of DOM entering lakes and that climate may significantly affect lake chemical properties. Although unexpected in terms of DOM loading for climate change scenarios, these results are consistent with patterns of decomposition in organic soils and may be attributed to an increase in soil DOM processing. 相似文献

土壤有机碳的积累主要由土壤有机质的输入与输出间的净平衡决定的,植被的恢复和凋落物质的大量输入是土壤恢复的先决条件,凋落物的输入在土壤恢复过程中起着至关重要的作用.通过对不同类型凋落物输入到三江平原弃耕农田后土壤的基础呼吸、溶解有机碳(DOC)和土壤微生物量碳(MBC)的研究表明:相同种类凋落物输入后,输入到土壤总有机碳(TOC)背景值低的凋落物被微生物降解的速率大于TOC背景值高的土壤,TOC较低的土壤能够加快微生物对输入凋落物的分解,不利于有机质的积累;不同类型凋落物的输入使土壤基础呼吸、DOC和MBC等活性组分的生成和降解产生差异,改变了凋落物的降解速率,在三江平原研究的4种主要植被类型中,人工林凋落物最容易降解,小叶章、大豆的降解能力次之,玉米是最难降解的凋落物. 相似文献

To construct a budget of carbon transformations occurring during leaf decomposition, alder leaves were placed in a woodland stream, later retrieved at weekly intervals, and rates of fungal and bacterial production, microbial respiration, and release of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and fine particulate organic matter (FPOM) were determined during short laboratory incubations. Carbon dioxide was the major decomposition product, explaining 17% of the microbially mediated leaf mass loss. DOM and FPOM were also important products (5 and 3% of total mass loss, respectively), whereas carbon flow to microbial biomass was low (2%). Fungal biomass in leaves always exceeded bacterial biomass (95–99% of total microbial biomass), but production of bacteria and fungi was similar, indicating that both types of microorganisms need to be considered when examining leaf decomposition in streams. Comparison of leaf mass loss in coarse and fine mesh bags revealed, in addition, that the shredder, Gammarus pulex, had a major impact on leaf decomposition in this study. 相似文献

Colloidal macromolecular organic compounds are important intermediaries between solution and particle phases and play a critical role in the biogeochemistry of trace metals and organic carbon. The releases of colloidal organic carbon and trace metals (Cd, Fe, and Zn) mediated by copepod grazing and decomposition, and direct diatom exudation, were examined using a radiotracer approach. The colloidal phase was operationally defined in this study as the size fraction between 5 kDa and 0.2 μm and the dissolved phase as the ≤0.2 μm filter passing phase. About 13-60% of dissolved carbon exuded by the diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana was partitioned into the colloidal phase, and this fraction increased considerably as the diatom cells grew older. A lower fraction of dissolved 14C (12-23%) excreted by the copepods Acartia erythraea was detected in the colloidal phase compared to carcass (13-35%) and feces decomposition (21-34%). In contrast to carbon, a lower fraction of regenerated dissolved Cd (1-11%) and Zn (0-20%) from copepods and diatoms was consistently detected in the colloidal phases. Copepod excretion and carcass decomposition resulted in more colloidal Fe (51-91%) than diatom exudation (46-62% for Thalassiosira weissflogii, and 3-33% for T. pseudonana) and copepod feces decomposition (16-30%). Copepod ( Calanus sinicus) grazing reduced the colloidal fraction of dissolved 14C, although a higher concentration of the diatom's ( T. weissflogii) carbon was regenerated into the dissolved phase. The grazing of these copepods did not have any influence on the colloidal metal partitioning. The release of trace metals and carbon was enhanced by a higher density of copepod's grazing. Thus, different biological processes (grazing, excretion, exudation, and decomposition) may contribute differently to the production and dynamics of colloidal carbon and metals in planktonic systems. 相似文献

Rates of phytoplankton photosynthesis, extracellular release of dissolved organic carbon, and production or utilization of dissolved organic carbon during in situ incubation were measured in a soft-water Vermont lake during summer thermal stratification. Phytoplankton photosynthesis rates were frequently in the range of 300–600 mg C m −2 of lake surface day −1; extracellular release of previously fixed organic carbon was generally in the range of 20–75% of the carbon incorporated into cell biomass, as determined by gas-phase radio-analysis. Rates of increase or decrease in total dissolved organic carbon occurring in light and dark incubated phytoplankton samples, during brief (4 hour) in situ measurements, indicate that a significant fraction of the total dissolved organic carbon „pool”︁ is probably labile and rapidly being cycled. 相似文献

溶解性有机碳、氮在土壤全碳、全氮含量中所占的比例很小,但却是土壤有机质中最为重要和活跃的部分。研究利用土壤溶解性有机碳、氮生物降解的测定方法,分别选取沈阳农业大学试验站不同肥力及与定位试验地紧密相连的自然林地棕壤为研究对象,开展棕壤溶解性有机碳、氮的生物降解特性的研究,为了解溶解性有机碳、氮在土壤生态系统碳、氮循环中的作用,探讨棕壤溶解性有机碳、氮与土壤肥力的关系提供理论依据。研究结果表明,棕壤林地溶解性有机碳、氮的含量最高,高肥处理次之,低肥处理含量最低。棕壤溶解性有机碳、氮与全碳、全氮和微生物量碳、氮的相关性达到极显著水平,与土壤肥力紧密相关,可以作为指示土壤肥力的重要指标。不同肥力棕壤溶解性有机碳、氮的降解速率在培养初期较快,而后逐渐减慢,降解数据符合双指数衰变模型。棕壤溶解性有机碳分别由降解速率不同的两个库组成:周转时间在1d的易分解部分和周转时间大约为400d的难分解部分。棕壤溶解性有机氮是由周转速率大约为2d的易降解部分和周转速率在99~105d左右的难分解部分组成. 经过42d的培养,浸提液中剩余溶解性有机质碳氮比值较培养前有所增加。 相似文献

SUMMARY. 1. Despite the widely accepted importance of bacteria and fungi in degrading detritus in aquatic ecosystems there is still very little quantitative information on the abundance and dynamics of these microorganisms. Using epifluorescent microscopy, we measured the biomass of bacteria and fungi during decomposition of three types of leaf detritus. Bacterial production was determined from the rate of incorporation of 3H-thymidine into DNA. 2. The transformation of leaf carbon into dissolved organic carbon and fine particulate organic carbon was followed in order to compare the amounts of leaf material that were converted into these 'end-products' of decomposition versus the amount converted into microbial biomass. 3. The amount of microbial carbon in the leaf-detritus complex never exceeded 5.2% of the total carbon, and fungal biomass was always much greater than bacterial biomass. Despite the greater standing stock of fungi, the rapid turnover of bacteria (doubling about once per day) implies that their role in degrading leaf litter or as a food source for detritivores might be as great as for fungi. 4. Removal of microbial biomass from leaf litter may occur as release of fungal spores and consumption or shedding of bacterial biomass. Fungal spores can be a significant part of the fine particulate organic carbon released from leaf detritus and potentially represent an important food resource for filter-feeding organisms. 相似文献

The initial benthic decomposition of Zostera marina roots was studied in a controlled flow-through chamber experiment for 23 days. Sediment chambers without added roots served as controls. The inflowing and outflowing artificial seawater (ASW) was analyzed for O 2, ΣCO 2, urea-N, NH 4+ and NO 2−+NO 3−. Sediment profiles of Eh, particulate organic carbon (POC) and nitrogen, dissolved organic nitrogen (DON), dissolved free amino acids (DFAA), urea-N, NH 4+, DFAA and urea turnover rates, sulfate reduction and counts of total anaerobic heterotrophic bacteria and different functional groups were determined. Fluxes of O 2, ΣCO 2, urea-N and NH 4+ were stimulated during root decomposition compared to the unamended control. There were indications of stimulated bacterial growth based on counts of total anaerobic heterotrophic bacteria, anaerobic phosphatase utilizers, ammonifyers and sulfate reducers. Independent estimates of nitrogen and carbon incorporation into bacterial biomass during root decomposition indicate that a major fraction of the nitrogen for microbial growth was mobilized from the indigenous particulate organic nitrogen (PON) pool, whereas the energy source for bacterial growth was mainly obtained from the added eelgrass roots. Most of the nitrogen mineralized during root decomposition was incorporated into the bacterial biomass resulting in a low efflux of urea-N and inorganic nitrogen from the sediment to the water column. 相似文献

We have previously demonstrated that the intraspecific diversity of leaf litter can influence ecosystem functioning during litter decomposition in the field. It is unknown whether the effects of phenotypic diversity persist when litter from an additional species is present. We used laboratory microcosms to determine whether the intraspecific diversity effects of turkey oak leaf litter on nutrient dynamics are confounded by the presence of naturally co-occurring longleaf pine litter. We varied the phenotypic diversity of oak litter (1, 3, and 6 phenotype combinations) in the presence and absence of pine litter and measured fluxes of carbon and nitrogen over a 42-week period. The average soil C:N ratio peaked at intermediate levels of oak phenotypic diversity and the total amount of dissolved organic carbon leached from microcosms decreased (marginally) with increasing oak phenotypic diversity. The soil carbon content, and the total amount of ammonium, nitrate, and dissolved organic carbon leached from microcosms were all influenced by initial litter chemistry. Our results suggest that the effects of phenotypic diversity can persist in the presence of another species, however specific litter chemistries (condensed and hydrolysable tannins, simple phenolics, C:N ratios) are more important than phenotypic litter diversity to most nutrient fluxes during litter decomposition. 相似文献

Spilled crude petroleum from oil wells contains numerous hydrocarbons, some of which are toxic and threaten life. We have studied the mobility and persistence of hydrocarbons in waterlogged soils that contain large proportions of fermented organic matter (Histosols) and large concentrations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in the State of Tabasco, Mexico. We sampled soil and phreatic water at sites polluted by oil spills for several decades, as well as at sites that had only recently (few weeks) been polluted, and compared their hydrocarbon contents with those of unaffected sites in the same area. Samples were analyzed for 16 non-alkylated polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and n-alkanes from nC9 to nC34. The spilled hydrocarbons had remained predominantly in the organic surface horizons of the soil where spillage occurred; there was little evidence of movement within the soil. The fraction of low molecular weight compounds was larger at sites of recent spills than where spills happened several decades ago. Nevertheless, sites of old spills still contained large concentrations of hydrocarbons, among which those of low molecular weight represented from 30 to 49% of total PAHs and from 50 to 84% of total n-alkanes, indicating that volatilization or microbial degradation is slow in these soils. In the peat horizons the measured organic carbon partition coefficients (K oc ) for the higher molecular weight PAHs were consistently smaller than those estimated by empirical equations by up to two orders of magnitude. The dissolved organic carbon of these peat soils seems to influence this behavior. At sites of old spills, partition coefficients for the PAHs were larger than at sites of recent spills. 相似文献

Heterotrophic bacteria typically take up directly dissolved organic matter due to the small molecular size, although both particulate and dissolved organic matter have labile (easily consumed) compounds. Tropical coastal waters are important ecosystems because of their high productivity. However, few studies have determined bacterial cycling (i.e. carbon uptake by bacteria and allocation for bacterial biomass and respiration) of dissolved organic carbon in coastal tropical waters, and none has determined bacterial cycling of total and dissolved organic carbon simultaneously. In this study we followed bacterial biomass and production, and organic carbon changes over short-term (12 days) dark incubations with (total organic carbon, TOC) and without particulate organic carbon additions (dissolved organic carbon, DOC). The study was performed at three sites along the middle stretch of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) during the dry and wet seasons. Our results show that the bacterial growth efficiency is low (0.1–11.5%) compared to other coastal tropical systems, and there were no differences in the carbon cycling between organic matter sources, seasons or locations. Nonetheless, more carbon was consumed in the TOC compared to the DOC incubations, although the proportion allocated to biomass and respiration was similar. This suggests that having more bioavailable substrate in the particulate form did not benefit bacteria. Overall, our study indicates that when comparing the obtained respiration rates with previously measured primary production rates, the GBR is a heterotrophic system. More detailed studies are required to fully explore the mechanisms used by bacteria to cycle TOC and DOC in tropical coastal waters. 相似文献

Bacterial conversion of high (HMW > 3,000 Da) and low (LMW < 3,000 Da) molecular weight DON (dissolved organic nitrogen) was studied along the freshwater section of the Elbe estuary during the summer of 1997. Indigenous populations of picoplankton were incubated in a flow-through chamber that allowed a constant exchange of sterile, filtered Elbe water as the culture medium for the microorganisms, which remained within the chamber. Nitrogen conversion was followed by changes in the concentrations of total and low molecular weight DON and dissolved inorganic nitrogen compounds, the uptake of O2, and bacterial growth. Along the Elbe estuary, total DON concentrations varied between 0.69 and 1.1 mg N L-1, of which between 64 and 79% was LMW-DON. Ammonium was a minor nutrient present in the Elbe at concentrations below 0.26 mg N L-1. During incubation in the laboratory between 27 and 64% of the LMW-DON was consumed at rates ranging from 24 to 51 g N L-1 h-1. HMW-DON was used only when the degradable LMW-DON pool became exhausted and accounted for between 60 and 100% of the HMW-DON. This produced an increase in the DON consumption rate between 43 and 79 g N L-1 h-1. Nitrification rates were independent of the external ammonium concentration until it decreased to below 1 g N-NH4 L-1. Most of the N in the nitrification process originated as NH4 regenerated from DON. Between 75 and 100% of the LMW-DON and ammonium consumed was rapidly converted to nitrate. This amount decreased to between 65 and 85% when HMW-DON was consumed in addition to the LMW-DON. DON and ammonium consumption supported nitrification rates up to 71 g N L-1 h-1. The amount of DOC (dissolved organic carbon) degraded was not equivalent to the C:N ratio of the total dissolved organic matter. Calculations based on oxygen consumption for respiration and ammonium regeneration revealed that the substrates used during the incubations contained C:N at ratios of about 3:1. These results suggest that the nitrogen-rich compounds had been removed from the dissolved organic matter and subsequently consumed by bacteria, while the carbon skeleton remained mostly unaffected by the degradation processes. 相似文献

The decomposition rate of Potamogeton crispus and its rates of phosphorus (P) release and sedimentation were quantified during natural senescence in a microcosm experiment. The decay of P. crispus was characterized by an exponential model with a mean mass loss coefficient ( k) of 0.05 day ?1. During the first 10 days, the rapid decomposition phase, k was 0.068 day ?1. The rates of P release and total P sedimentation, as well as the dissolved total P, soluble reactive phosphorus, dissolved organic phosphorus, and particulate phosphorus, were quantified throughout the 30-day study period. The nitrogen (N) and P contents of P. crispus increased whereas the carbon (C) content and the C:N, C:P, and N:P ratios decreased near the end of the decomposition phase. In addition, the pH, dissolved oxygen, and redox potential decreased during the rapid release of P. The results indicated that the rate of mass loss was slower from dried plants than from senescent plants. The rapid decomposition rate, which was associated with a high rate of P release, suggests that much of the accumulated P will eventually be returned to the aquatic ecosystem. These data illuminate the mechanisms of decomposition and suggest a strategy of reducing eutrophication by harvesting P. crispus prior to its senescence. 相似文献

Exudates produced from Bermuda grass roots were collected in deionized water from sterilized Bermuda grass sod at 3-day intervals over a period of 15 days. Exudates were analyzed for total organic carbon, and characterized via Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy. Exudate samples were adjusted to pH values of 4.5, 6.5, and 7.5, amended with lead and quantified for soluble and complexed lead via Inductively Coupled Plasma—Optical Emission Spectrometry. Data obtained from total organic carbon measurements indicated compositional changes in Bermuda grass root exudates as organic carbon concentrations increased over time. Analysis of the infrared spectroscopy data indicated that carboxylic acids and amine functional groups were present in root exudates. Also, the ability of root-exuded compounds to solubilize lead in aqueous media was demonstrated as exudate samples dissolved an average of 60% more lead than deionized water. At pH values 4.5 and 7.5, lead complexation by Bermuda grass root exudates increased with decreasing molecular weight size fractions, while an opposite trend was observed at pH 6.5. Results from this study demonstrated the ability of Bermuda grass root exudates to complex lead in aqueous media. 相似文献

In recent years, two different approaches to the study of biodegradable organic matter in distribution systems have been followed. The assimilable organic carbon (AOC) indicates the portion of the dissolved organic matter used by bacteria and converted to biomass, which is directly measured as total bacteria, active bacteria or colony-forming units and indirectly as ATP or increase in turbidity. In contrast, the biodegradable dissolved organic carbon (BDOC) is the portion of the dissolved organic carbon that can be mineralized by heterotrophic micro-organisms, and it is measured as the difference between the inflow and the outflow of a bioreactor. In this study, at different steps in a water treatment plant, the bacterial regrowth capability was determined by the AOC method that measures the maximum growth rate by using a computerized Monitek turbidimeter. The BDOC was determined using a plug flow bioreactor. Measurements of colony-forming units and total organic carbon (TOC) evolution in a turbidimeter and of colony-forming units at the inflow/outflow of the bioreactor were also performed, calculating at all sampling points the coefficient yield ( Y = cfu/ΔTOC) in both systems. The correlations between the results from the bioreactor and turbidimeter have been calculated ; a high correlation level was observed between BDOC values and all the other parameters, except for Y calculated from bacterial suspension measured in the turbidimeter. 相似文献

Leaf litter can be of great importance for the productivity of small oligotrophic lakes surrounded by deciduous forests. Feeding invertebrate shredders produce particulate organic leftovers, but their feeding also enhances the release of dissolved organic carbon (DOC). We tested whether invertebrate-mediated DOC release affects the production of heterotrophic water-column bacteria. Submersed leaves were incubated in microcosms with and without shredders; and DOC, absorbance, bacterial abundance and bacterial production in the water column were monitored. We also measured dry weight of the organic particles (FPOC, fine particulate organic carbon, leaf residues and shredders). Total leaf-litter carbon decreased by nearly 80% in the presence of shredders, and on average 56% of the initial leaf carbon ended up as FPOC after 126 days of incubation. Without shredders FPOC production was almost zero, and 72% of the added leaf carbon could be retrieved as leaves when the experiment ended. Both these figures include the rapid release of DOC during the first week of leaf incubation in the lake water (equivalent to 16–19% of total added leaf carbon). Although bacterial production in the water was several times higher in treatments with shredders, bacterial consumption of leaf-derived DOC from shredding was obviously of minor importance in the total carbon budget. This result suggests, although shredders have a strong impact on transformation of leaves to FPOC, they do not greatly enhance the initial rate of mineralization of the leaf-derived detritus. 相似文献
