摘要

浮游动物在水生生态系统的碳循环中发挥着关键作用,然而它们产生的富碳粪便颗粒却很少在河口地区被量化。我们测量了切萨皮克湾约克河次河口整个近表层中浮游动物群落的粪便颗粒碳(FPC)产量。浮游动物的生物量和分类组成是通过每月成对的昼/夜网拖进行测量的。采用活体动物实验来量化整个群落和主要单个类群的 FPC 生产率。由于浮游动物的昼夜垂直迁移,尤其是桡足类(Acartia spp. copepods)的迁移,表层水域浮游动物的生物量在夜间增加(2-29 倍)。浮游动物的生物量和多样性在冬季呈季节性偏低,夏季呈季节性偏高,且通常以桡足类(Acartia)为主。整个群落的桡足类生产率在夜间比白天高(3-65倍),0.5-1毫米大小的桡足类对桡足类生产的贡献率白天为2-26%,而夜间为40-70%。由于大型动物昼夜垂直迁移到表层水域,因此夜间较大体型部分对全鱼类产量的相对贡献增加。秋季群落 FPC 产量最高,原因是产生较大粪粒的大型动物的多样性和丰度增加,而夏季最低,可能是由于胶状捕食者自上而下地控制了丰富的甲壳类类群。这项研究表明,河口浮游动物的粪便颗粒生产量可超过海洋系统,并表明粪便颗粒出口在河口底栖生物-海洋耦合中的重要性:在线版本包含补充材料,可查阅 10.1007/s12237-024-01442-8。

The Role of Zooplankton Community Composition in Fecal Pellet Carbon Production in the York River Estuary, Chesapeake Bay.

Zooplankton play a key role in the cycling of carbon in aquatic ecosystems, yet their production of carbon-rich fecal pellets, which sink to depth and can fuel benthic community metabolism, is rarely quantified in estuaries. We measured fecal pellet carbon (FPC) production by the whole near-surface mesozooplankton community in the York River sub-estuary of Chesapeake Bay. Zooplankton biomass and taxonomic composition were measured with monthly paired day/night net tows. Live animal experiments were used to quantify FPC production rates of the whole community and dominant individual taxa. Zooplankton biomass increased in surface waters at night (2- to 29-fold) due to diel vertical migration, especially by Acartia spp. copepods. Biomass and diversity were seasonally low in the winter and high in the summer and often dominated by Acartia copepods. Whole community FPC production rates were higher (3- to 65-fold) at night than during the day, with the 0.5-1 mm size class contributing 2-26% to FPC production in the day versus 40-70% at night. An increase in the relative contribution of larger size fractions to total FPC production occurred at night due to diel vertical migration of larger animals into surface waters. Community FPC production was highest in fall due to increased diversity and abundance of larger animals producing larger fecal pellets, and lowest in summer likely due to top-down control of abundant crustacean taxa by gelatinous predators. This study indicates that zooplankton FPC production in estuaries can surpass that in oceanic systems and suggests that fecal pellet export is important in benthic-pelagic coupling in estuaries.

期刊介绍: Estuaries and Coasts is the journal of the Coastal and Estuarine Research Federation (CERF). Begun in 1977 as Chesapeake Science, the journal has gradually expanded its scope and circulation. Today, the journal publishes scholarly manuscripts on estuarine and near coastal ecosystems at the interface between the land and the sea where there are tidal fluctuations or sea water is diluted by fresh water. The interface is broadly defined to include estuaries and nearshore coastal waters including lagoons, wetlands, tidal fresh water, shores and beaches, but not the continental shelf. The journal covers research on physical, chemical, geological or biological processes, as well as applications to management of estuaries and coasts. The journal publishes original research findings, reviews and perspectives, techniques, comments, and management applications. Estuaries and Coasts will consider properly carried out studies that present inconclusive findings or document a failed replication of previously published work. Submissions that are primarily descriptive, strongly place-based, or only report on development of models or new methods without detailing their applications fall outside the scope of the journal.
