This study aimed to understand the physiological response of this emblematic seagrass to multiple stresses, with an emphasis on evaluating the acclimatory capacity of juvenile leaves to low temperatures during winter in three sites with a contrasting exposure to heavy metals of anthropogenic origin in the Mediterranean coast near Cadaqués (NE Spain). Heavy metal concentrations together with multiple physiological stress markers, including the capacity of photo- and antioxidant protection and the extent of lipid peroxidation, were evaluated. Shoots from the three studied sites accumulated foliar concentrations of heavy metals that were higher than reference threshold values, especially for Cu, which showed a decreasing concentration gradient from the coast to the open sea. The maximum photochemical efficiency of Photosystem II (PSII) (<em>F</em>_v/<em>F</em>_m ratio) of juvenile leaves was sensitive to low temperatures, despite values attained did not indicate damage to PSII, which was confirmed with studies of recovery of the <em>F</em>_v/<em>F</em>_m ratio and the absence of symptoms of photo-oxidative stress. However, the presence of heavy metals seemed to negatively influence PSII photochemistry, as sites with the highest Cu concentrations also showed the lowest <em>F</em>_v/<em>F</em>_m ratios during spring, even though water temperature had already warmed. <em>F</em>_v/<em>F</em>_m values attained were not recoverable after an extended dark acclimation period, thus indicating damage to PSII. Heavy metals did not seem to exert a negative synergistic effect with low temperatures but rather affected the physiological performance of newly produced juvenile leaves during spring.

Twenty hours after labelling, the isotopes ²H and ¹⁵N were traced in the transpiration water and leaves, respectively. Concurrently, we measured the vertical patterns of available N and water, as well as absorptive root traits at different soil depths.

Water and N uptake patterns were well correlated with each other when data from all soil depths were combined, and more than 50 % of the variation in uptake of N was explained by water uptake. These patterns were themselves correlated with ARB, RLD, and N availability with increasing water table, respectively, suggesting that edaphic factors might override functional traits in controlling resource use under conditions of saturated soils in this wetland ecosystem.

In the broadleaved trees with better decomposable leaf litter, the main effect of N deposition was indicated through low δ¹⁵N signatures suggesting an intensification of uptake from N mineralization. Foliar δ¹⁵N signatures, and hence presumed changes in mineralization, were affected by soil chemistry, mean annual precipitation and temperature, but may also be influenced by deposition or other soil properties, which must be acknowledged when considering our results.
