Decoupled growth and grazing rates of diatoms and green algae drive increased phytoplankton productivity on HNLC sub-Antarctic plateaux
The combination of iron limitation and microzooplankton grazing controls phytoplankton productivity and taxonomic composition in high-nutrient low-chlorophyll (HNLC) regions. While increased productivity and diatom contribution triggered by iron enrichment support this view, direct measurements of underpinning group-specific growth and grazing rates are scarce for the Southern Ocean. To assess these rates, we conducted dilution experiments coupled to high-performance liquid chromatography and flow-cytometry in sub-Antarctic waters on and off Campbell Plateau, southeast of Aotearoa-New Zealand. Off the plateau, growth and grazing were closely balanced for all groups despite a two-fold difference between slow- and fast-growing groups. On Campbell Plateau, where HNLC conditions were alleviated, the balance was disrupted, mainly by the preferential growth of diatoms and green algae, which was stimulated beyond grazing. Our results expand the recognized ability of diatoms to escape grazing control to picoplanktonic green algae that also avoid grazing and contribute significantly to phytoplankton productivity and biomass accumulation.
期刊介绍:
Limnology and Oceanography Letters (LO-Letters) serves as a platform for communicating the latest innovative and trend-setting research in the aquatic sciences. Manuscripts submitted to LO-Letters are expected to present high-impact, cutting-edge results, discoveries, or conceptual developments across all areas of limnology and oceanography, including their integration. Selection criteria for manuscripts include their broad relevance to the field, strong empirical and conceptual foundations, succinct and elegant conclusions, and potential to advance knowledge in aquatic sciences.
