Abstract

Marine biogenic calcium carbonate production plays a role in the exchange of CO2 between ocean and atmosphere. The effect of increased CO2 on calcification and on the resulting chemistry of shells and skeletons, however, is only partly understood. Foraminifera are among the main marine CaCO3 producers and the controls on element partitioning and isotope fractionation is the subject of many recent investigations. The enzyme carbonic anhydrase (CA) was, for example, shown to be vital for CaCO3 deposition in benthic foraminifera and indicates their ability to manipulate their intracellular inorganic carbon chemistry. Here, we tested whether CA affects the partitioning of Na, Mg and Sr in the perforate, large benthic, symbiont-bearing foraminifer Amphistegina lessonii by addition of the inhibitor acetazolamide (AZ). The effect of dissolved CO2 on the effect of CA on element partitioning was also determined using a culturing setup with controlled atmospheric carbon dioxide levels (400-1,600 ppm). Results show that inhibition by AZ reduces calcification greatly and that CO2 has a small, but positive effect on the amount of calcite formed during the incubations. Furthermore, the inhibition of CA activity has a positive effect on element partitioning, most notably Mg. This may be explained by a (n indirect) coupling of inorganic carbon uptake and inward calcium ion pumping.

期刊介绍: PeerJ is an open access peer-reviewed scientific journal covering research in the biological and medical sciences. At PeerJ, authors take out a lifetime publication plan (for as little as $99) which allows them to publish articles in the journal for free, forever. PeerJ has 5 Nobel Prize Winners on the Board; they have won several industry and media awards; and they are widely recognized as being one of the most interesting recent developments in academic publishing.
