Effect of elevated pCO2 on photosynthesis and calcification of corals and interactions with seasonal change in temperature/irradiance and nutrient enrichment

Langdon, C., Atkinson, M. J.·2005·Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans

Abstract

An investigation was conducted to determine the effects of elevated pCO 2 on the net production and calcification of an assemblage of corals maintained under near‐natural conditions of temperature, light, nutrient, and flow. Experiments were performed in summer and winter to explore possible interactions between seasonal change in temperature and irradiance and the effect of elevated pCO 2. Particular attention was paid to interactions between net production and calcification because these two processes are thought to compete for the same internal supply of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC). A nutrient enrichment experiment was performed because it has been shown to induce a competitive interaction between photosynthesis and calcification that may serve as an analog to the effect of elevated pCO 2. Net carbon production, NP C, increased with increased pCO 2 at the rate of 3 ± 2% (μmol CO 2 aq kg−1)−1. Seasonal change of the slope NP C‐[CO 2 aq] relationship was not significant. Calcification (G) was strongly related to the aragonite saturation state Ωa. Seasonal change of the G‐Ωa relationship was not significant. The first‐order saturation state model gave a good fit to the pooled summer and winter data: G = (8 ± 1 mmol CaCO 3 m−2 h−1)(Ωa − 1), r2 = 0.87, P = 0.0001. Both nutrient and CO 2 enrichment resulted in an increase in NP C and a decrease in G, giving support to the hypothesis that the cellular mechanism underlying the decrease in calcification in response to increased pCO 2 could be competition between photosynthesis and calcification for a limited supply of DIC.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
