东辽河流域河湖光学吸收特性的季节变化 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
吸收特性是水体重要的光学特性,也是建立水色反演分析模型的基本参数.本文利用2011年6、9、10月在二龙湖和2012年10月在东辽河的实测数据,通过测定水体营养水平和颗粒物、有色可溶性有机物(CDOM)等光学活性物质的吸收系数,分析了东辽河河湖的光学物质吸收特性和季节变化.结果表明: 二龙湖水体9月处于富营养状态,6月营养水平较低,10月则处于中营养水平;东辽河随采样点位置的差异呈现不同程度的富营养化.水体各组分的吸收系数均随营养水平的增加而逐渐增大.6、10月二龙湖水体总悬浮颗粒物吸收光谱与非色素颗粒物吸收光谱相似,在总吸收中占主导作用的是CDOM;9月总悬浮颗粒物吸收光谱则与浮游植物吸收光谱类似,浮游植物的吸收对总吸收的贡献率最大.6、9月二龙湖浮游植物吸收系数[aph(440)]与总磷(TP)呈正相关,6月二龙湖aph(440)与溶解有机碳(DOC)呈正相关,非藻类颗粒物吸收系数[ad(440)]仅与叶绿素a浓度(Chl a)具有相关性.二龙湖(9月)与东辽河aph(675)均与Chl a、卡尔森指数(TLI)相关性较好.东辽河流域的河湖水体光学特性存在比较明显的差异:东辽河水体的浮游植物吸收光谱曲线展现出了两种不同类型,浮游植物、非藻类颗粒物、CDOM的贡献率随采样点的不同而相差较大;营养水平较高的9月二龙湖与东辽河水体浮游植物主导了水体光谱吸收,而在二龙湖营养水平较低的月份中(6、10月),颗粒物与CDOM共同主导水体光谱吸收;6月二龙湖与10月东辽河水体CDOM的组成为大分子颗粒物,而9与10月其组成更趋向于小分子颗粒物. 相似文献

微藻向细胞周围释放营养物质而形成了独特的藻际微环境,吸引了大量细菌的定殖。藻际环境中藻菌关系错综复杂,其间充斥着多样的物质交换与信息交流。以胞外聚合物(extracellularpolymeric substances,EPS)为代表的有机质在其中起着纽带作用。微藻和细菌都可以产生EPS,其过程受多种因素的调节。EPS在藻际环境中具有重要的生态功能,包括参与生物被膜(biofilm)的形成,影响藻菌共生关系的建立以及调节藻际微生物群落组成等。此外,EPS中的一大类别透明胞外聚合物颗粒(transparent exopolymer particles,TEP)还介导了海洋溶解有机碳向颗粒有机碳的转化,参与了海洋碳循环过程。本文以EPS的产生、组成以及对碳转化的影响为重点,综述了其在藻际生态位(Niche)中的生态功能,以期为深入理解藻际环境中的有机质特征和藻菌共生关系提供理论依据。 相似文献

铁作为浮游植物所必需的微量元素,限制了全球超过三分之一海域的初级生产力,尤其是在高营养盐、低叶绿素海域(high nutrient low chlorophyll,HNLC)。长期以来海洋铁施肥被认为是一项可以降低大气二氧化碳含量的地球工程策略。然而通过13次海洋人工铁施肥(artificial ocean iron fertilization,aOIF)实验发现,铁的额外添加对海洋深层碳输出量的促进作用要显著低于预期。本文简要地总结了碳在海洋和大气中的循环过程,回顾了人工铁施肥实验对生物碳泵和碳通量等的影响,分析了从海洋铁施肥到海洋碳汇关键生物地球化学过程的影响因素。综上分析发现,科学界对生物碳泵过程及其调控机制的认识仍十分浅薄,考虑到海洋铁施肥还会对海洋生态系统带来一定的负面作用,铁施肥能否作为降低大气中CO2的有效手段,以达到碳中和并缓解温室效应仍需进一步研究。 相似文献

工业革命以来由于化石燃料的大量燃烧,大气CO2水平不断增加,预计在21世纪末将增至现有水平的两倍,达到750 μL/L。作为全球初级生产力的重要贡献者,浮游植物应对CO2水平升高的生理生态响应必然会对水生生态系统和碳、氮等元素的生物地球化学循环产生重要影响。全球CO2水平的升高将显著改变水体的碳化学环境,淡水生态系统(湖泊和河流)由于容量小变化比海洋更为显著。水体碳化学环境的改变首先会影响浮游植物个体,在高CO2水平下,浮游植物的细胞会有变小的趋势,并且细胞的光合作用强度也会有不同程度的增加,其中细胞较小或者不具有碳浓缩机制(CCM)的浮游植物增加较多,此外浮游植物细胞的化学元素计量值也将显著改变。随后浮游植物个体水平上的变化会进一步影响水生生态系统,例如水体初级生产力水平的提高,浮游植物、浮游动物群落结构组成以及水体微食物网结构的变化等。此外浮游植物对CO2水平升高的生理生态响应程度还与水体的营养水平有关。总结了大气CO2水平升高对浮游植物生理生态影响的研究方法,展望了未来可能的研究方向。 相似文献

Gel-like transparent exopolymer particles (TEP) formed frompolysaccharides exuded copiously by natural phytoplankton andbacteria occur ubiquitously in sea water, but the utilizationof these particles as a food source by zooplankton is poorlyknown. The common marine calanoid copepod Calanus pacificusconsumed TEP and produced abundant fecal pellets when TEP wereoffered both alone and in the presence of diatom cells. TEPconsumption increased with TEP concentration and the presenceof TEP did not inhibit ingestion of cells. However, becauseof their low carbon content, TEP contributed only 15% to totalcarbon consumption in the presence of phytoplankton food. Whilecopepods consumed pure TEP in this study, sticky TEP in naturecontain abundant inclusions of bacteria and microorganisms toosmall for copepods to capture individually. Thus, consumptionof TEP may be most significant as a mechanism by which carbonmay be shunted from the microbial loop to higher trophic levels. 相似文献

Aggregation of algae, mainly diatoms, is an important process in marine systems leading to the settling of particulate organic carbon predominantly in the form of marine snow. Exudation products of phytoplankton form transparent exopolymer particles (TEP), which acts as the glue for particle aggregation. Heterotrophic bacteria interacting with phytoplankton may influence TEP formation and phytoplankton aggregation. This bacterial impact has not been explored in detail. We hypothesized that bacteria attaching to Thalassiosira weissflogii might interact in a yet-to-be determined manner, which could impact TEP formation and aggregate abundance. The role of individual T. weissflogii-attaching and free-living new bacterial isolates for TEP production and diatom aggregation was investigated in vitro. T. weissflogii did not aggregate in axenic culture, and striking differences in aggregation dynamics and TEP abundance were observed when diatom cultures were inoculated with either diatom-attaching or free-living bacteria. The data indicated that free-living bacteria might not influence aggregation whereas bacteria attaching to diatom cells may increase aggregate formation. Interestingly, photosynthetically inactivated T. weissflogii cells did not aggregate regardless of the presence of bacteria. Comparison of aggregate formation, TEP production, aggregate sinking velocity and solid hydrated density revealed remarkable differences. Both, photosynthetically active T. weissflogii and specific diatom-attaching bacteria were required for aggregation. It was concluded that interactions between heterotrophic bacteria and diatoms increased aggregate formation and particle sinking and thus may enhance the efficiency of the biological pump. 相似文献

Abundance, size distribution and bacterial colonization of transparent exopolymeric particles (TEP) during spring in the Kattegat 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The abundance, size distribution and bacterial colonizationof transparent exopolymeric particles (TEP) were monitored inthe Kattegat (Denmark) at weekly intervals throughout the spring(February-May) encompassing the spring diatom bloom. These recentlydiscovered particles are believed to be formed from colloidalorganic material exuded by phytoplankton and bacteria, and mayhave significant implications for pelagic flux processes. Duringthis study, the number concentration of TEP (>1 µm)ranged from 3 x 103 to 6 x 104 ml1 and the volume concentrationbetween 0.3 and 9.0 p.p.m.; they were most abundant in the surfacewaters subsequent to the spring phytoplankton bloom. The rangeof TEP (encased) volume concentration was similar to that ofthe phytoplankton, although at times TEP volume concentrationexceeded that of the phytoplankton by two orders of magnitude.The TEP size distribution followed a power law, with the abundanceof particles scaling with particle diameter(ß+1).The seasonal average estimate of ß (2.3) was not significantlydifferent from three, consistent with TEP being formed by shearcoagulation from smaller particles. However, date-specific estimatesof ß differed significantly from three, probably becauseTEP are fractal. All TEP were colonized by bacteria, and bacteriawere both attached to the surface of and embedded in TEP. Yetthe number of attached bacteria per TEP was related neitherto the surface area nor the volume, but rather scaled with TEPsize raised to an exponent of 相似文献

We investigated if (1) dissolved compounds excreted by Phaeocystis globosa and (2) transparent exopolymer particles (TEP) formed from carbohydrates excreted into the water affect the feeding of nauplii and females of the calanoid copepod Temora longicornis during a P. globosa bloom. Copepod grazing on the diatom Thalassiosira weissflogii in the presence of these possible grazing deterrents was measured during three successive weeks of a mesocosm study, simulating the development of a P. globosa bloom. Our results demonstrate no indication for the presence of feeding deterrents in the dissolved phase, but a strong inhibitory effect of transparent exopolymer particles (TEP) on the consumption of algae by both nauplii and adult copepods. The inhibitory effect of TEP was connected to the accumulation of DOM during the progress of the bloom. We suggest that a reduction in the grazing pressure of zooplankton may increase the survival of the liberated single cells during disruption of colonies and allow seeding populations to persist. Furthermore, P. globosa reduces the trophic efficiency of the food web not only by withdrawal of its colonies from grazing but also by a relaxation of the grazing pressure on co-occurring phytoplankton and by alteration of the food web structure via TEP production. 相似文献

The viral mediated transformation of phytoplankton organic carbon to dissolved forms (“viral shunt”) has been suggested as a major source of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in marine systems. Despite the potential implications of viral activity on the global carbon fluxes, studies investigating changes in the DOC composition from viral lysis is still lacking. Micromonas pusilla is an ecologically relevant picoeukaryotic phytoplankter, widely distributed in both coastal and oceanic marine waters. Viruses have been found to play a key role in regulating the population dynamics of this species. In this study we used axenic cultures of exponentially growing M. pusilla to determine the impact of viral lysis on the DOC concentration and composition, as estimated from lysate-derived production of transparent exopolymer particles (TEP) and two fractions of fluorescent dissolved organic matter (DOM): aromatic amino acids (excitation/emission; 280/320 nm; F(280/320)) and marine humic-like fluorescent DOM (320/410 nm; F(320/410)). DOC concentration increased 4.5 times faster and reached 2.6 times higher end concentration in the viral infected compared with the non-infected cultures. The production of F(280/320) and F(320/410) were 4.1 and 2.8 times higher in the infected cultures, and the elevated ratio between F(280/320) and F(320/410) in lysates suggested a higher contribution of labile (protein) components in viral produced DOM than in algal exudates. The TEP production was 1.8 times faster and reached a 1.5 times higher level in the viral infected M. pusilla culture compared with the non- infected cultures. The measured increase in both DOC and TEP concentrations suggests that viral lysis has multiple and opposite implications for the production and export processes in the pelagic ocean: (1) by releasing host biomass as DOC it decreases the organic matter sedimentation and promotes respiration and nutrient retention in the photic zone, whereas (2) the observed enhanced TEP production could stimulate particle aggregation and thus carbon export out of the photic zone. 相似文献

In the marine environment, transparent exopolymer particles (TEP) are ubiquitous and abundant, playing a significant role in carbon cycling and the structuring of food webs. Previous studies have shown that phytoplankton, bacteria, and oysters contribute to the production of TEP through the release of exopolymers. However, little is known about other potential sources of TEP and TEP precursors, especially in coastal systems. It was hypothesized that suspension feeders contribute to the TEP pool in near-shore environments through the release of exopolymers in both the dissolved and particulate form, and tested these hypotheses in both laboratory and field experiments. In the laboratory, the production of TEP by several species of benthic suspension feeders (the blue mussel, Mytilus edulis; the bay scallop, Argopecten irradians; the slipper snail, Crepidula fornicata; and the solitary ascidians, Ciona intestinalis and Styela clava) was investigated from October to November 2002 and June 2003. Concentrations of TEP and DOC were determined by spectrophotometry after alcian blue staining and high-temperature, catalytic oxidation, respectively. Similar analyses were conducted on water samples from the field in July 2003, collected in close proximity to dense beds of mussels in the Poquonnock River, Connecticut, USA (41°19′ N, − 72°02′ W). Laboratory results indicated that actively-pumping blue mussels, bay scallops, slipper snails, and both species of solitary ascidians significantly enhanced TEP concentrations above background levels over a five-hour period. However, only the solitary tunicate S. clava significantly enhanced DOC concentrations above background levels over the same period of time. Field samples indicated that TEP and DOC concentrations were high in close proximity to dense beds of mussels. These results imply that a variety of benthic suspension feeders produce TEP during feeding activities which could lead to enhanced flocculation of organic matter and carbon deposition in near-shore waters. 相似文献

Coupling between autocatalytic cell death and transparent exopolymeric particle production in the marine cyanobacterium Trichodesmium 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Berman-Frank I Rosenberg G Levitan O Haramaty L Mari X 《Environmental microbiology》2007,9(6):1415-1422
Extracellular polysaccharide aggregates, operationally defined as transparent exopolymeric particles (TEP), are recognized as an important conduit for carbon recycling and export in aquatic systems. Yet, the factors controlling the build-up of the TEP pool are not well characterized. Here we show that increased TEP production by Trichodesmium, an oceanic bloom-forming nitrogen-fixing (diazotrophic) cyanobacterium, is coupled with autocatalytic programmed cell death (PCD) process. We demonstrate that PCD induction, in both laboratory cultures and natural populations, is characterized by high caspase-like activity, correlates with enhanced TEP production, and occurs under iron and phosphorus starvation, as well as under high irradiance and oxidative stress. Enhanced TEP production was not observed in actively growing populations. We provide further evidence that iron is a key trigger for the induction of PCD. We demonstrate, for the first time, the concomitant enhanced build-up of the TEP pool when Trichodesmium is Fe-stressed. These results suggest a functional linkage between activation of caspases and PCD in Trichodesmium and regulation of vertical carbon and nitrogen fluxes. We hypothesize that modulation of TEP formation and its qualities by different mortality pathways could regulate the fate of phytoplankton blooms and particulate organic matter in aquatic ecosystems. 相似文献
