摘要

资源可利用性随环境梯度变化的脉动可以过滤湿地大型植物和微生物群落的局部和区域分布。经历短水期(即6个月的死水)的湿地可能会引起大型植物和微生物席对水的竞争。然而,应力梯度假说预测,非生物胁迫应该增加促进生产者动态的共同调节。为了确定大型植物和微生物垫生物量是否以及如何沿水文梯度共同变化,我们在美国佛罗里达州的Everglades国家公园进行了两次观测调查和一次生物量去除实验。在这项调查中,使用结构方程模型对9种水文调节的大型植物群落类型的生物量进行了为期两年的测量,以确定沿水文周期梯度(3-8个月)生物量和大型植物-微生物垫相互作用的驱动因素。在不同水期(3 ~ 6个月)的湿地样地,通过测定两个月去除大型植物或微生物席生物量对两种群落生物量的影响,量化了水文对大型植物和微生物席相互作用的影响。水文和生物的相互作用影响了大型植物和微生物的生物量,在最短水期样带中,以黑Schoenus nigricans和牙买加Cladium jamaicense为主,相互作用较强。在水文梯度上,我们发现了大型植物生物量对微生物生物量的直接负影响,反之亦然,而微生物对洪水持续时间的响应对大型植物生物量有显著的正影响。在短水期湿地去除实验大型植物导致微生物生物量显著增加,而去除微生物席则降低了优势大型植物大麻草的生物量。短水期湿地微生物席对大型植物生物量的促进作用可能是由于其抗干燥结构延长了土壤的保水能力。在短水文梯度中,应力诱导促进支持应力梯度假说,同时也观察到竞争相互作用。随着气候和人类驱动因素继续改变水生系统的水文,群落相互作用的类型和强度将继续变化,并改变整个景观的分布。

Pulses of resource availability along environmental gradients can filter the local and regional distribution of macrophyte and microbial mat communities in wetlands. Wetlands that experience short hydroperiods (i.e., <6 months with standing water) may cause macrophyte and microbial mat competition for water. However, the stress gradient hypothesis predicts that abiotic stress should increase facilitative co-regulation of producer dynamics. To determine if and how macrophyte and microbial mat biomass covary along a hydrologic gradient, we conducted two observational surveys and a biomass removal experiment in Everglades National Park, FL, USA. In the survey, macrophyte and microbial mat biomass were measured over a two-year period across nine hydrologically regulated macrophyte community types to determine drivers of biomass and macrophyte–microbial mat interactions along a hydroperiod gradient (3–8 months) using a structural equation model. In the experiment, the effect of hydrology on the interaction between macrophytes and microbial mats was quantified by measuring the effect of bimonthly removal of macrophyte or microbial mat biomass on the biomass of both communities in plots in wetlands with contrasting hydroperiods (3–6 months). Hydrology and biological interactions influenced macrophyte and microbial mat biomass, with stronger interactions observed in the shortest hydroperiod transect sites dominated by Schoenus nigricans and Cladium jamaicense. Along the hydrologic gradient, we found direct negative effects of macrophyte biomass on microbial biomass and vice versa, and a significant positive effect of microbial response to flooding duration on macrophyte biomass. Experimental macrophyte removal in shorter-hydroperiod wetlands resulted in a significant increase in microbial biomass while microbial mat removal reduced biomass of the dominant macrophyte C. jamaicense. The facilitative effect of microbial mats on macrophyte biomass in shorter-hydroperiod wetlands may be driven by mats prolonging soil moisture retention due to their desiccation-resistant structure. Stress-induced facilitation supported the stress gradient hypothesis across the short-hydrologic gradient, while competitive interactions were also observed. As climate and human drivers continue altering hydrology in aquatic systems, the type and strength of community interactions will continue to shift and alter distributions across the landscape.

期刊介绍: The scope of Ecosphere is as broad as the science of ecology itself. The journal welcomes submissions from all sub-disciplines of ecological science, as well as interdisciplinary studies relating to ecology. The journal''s goal is to provide a rapid-publication, online-only, open-access alternative to ESA''s other journals, while maintaining the rigorous standards of peer review for which ESA publications are renowned.
