Q5 01521 Mechanical and natural changes
Abstract: The study is based on a large hydrochemical and hydrobiological database of the shallow non-stratified Lake Peipsi, Estonia (3550 km super(2), mean depth 7.1. m) covering the period of significant decrease of external nutrient loading since the second half of 1980s. The effects and interactions of nutrient level, natural interannual water level fluctuations, and biota are estimated with advanced statistical methods. Along with clear changes in biota, certain resilience effects will be demonstrated. In Lake Peipsi, strong and long-lasting algal blooms were observed in recent years. In phytoplankton groups that demand less nutrients, as cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) have become more dominating. In the hot and dry summer 2002, blooming of cyanobacteria Gloeotrichia echinulata started in L. Peipsi s.s. in early June. Strong cyanobacterial bloom led to fish-kill in the lake, which was induced by synergistic effect of several unfavourable conditions: high temperature, low water level, great spatial and temporal variations in oxygen (saturation 25%-165%) and ammonium ion (up to 0.33 mg N 1 super(-1) content as well as in pH (7.7-9.5).

Title: Effect of an alternating oxic/anoxic regime on a (freshwater) Yarra River sediment

Abstract: The uptake and release of phosphorus, nitrogen, iron, and manganese from Yarra River sediments have been examined using laboratory reactors. Both slurried and static sediments were exposed to an alternating regime of oxic and anoxic conditions. Experiments examined the effect of changing the oxygen status on daily and weekly time frames. In all experiments, after anoxiawas re-established, oxidant consumption followed the expected thermodynamic order: O-2 > Mn-IV approximate to NOx > Fe-III. Contrary to predictions based on the standard iron - phosphorus model, significant phosphorus release was observed under oxic conditions. This was attributed to the mineralization of organic matter. Nitrate was shown to minimize phosphorus release from anoxic sediments by 'redox buffering' which prevented iron(III) reduction. The high ambient water column nitrate concentration ( 40 - 45 muM) in the Yarra River should effectively limit phosphorus release from the sediments unless long term (multiweek) anoxia occurs. Reduction of nitrate concentration occurred predominantly via denitrification. This work clearly demonstrated that on a time scale of hours to weeks, the iron, manganese, nitrogen, and phosphorus cycles are interacting closely.

Title: Distinct adaptivity during phosphate uptake by the cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis reflects information processing about preceding phosphate supply

Abstract: Using a phosphate deficient population of the cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis Kutzing the adaptation of the phosphate uptake system to pulsewise increases in the external phosphate concentration has been studied. The following observations have been made: 1. For an adaptation to occur, the external concentration had to be raised to micromolar levels. No adaptation was observed in the nanomolar concentration range. 2. During adaptation the uptake system was transformed within a few minutes from a more active into a less active state in which uptake behavior obeyed a linear flow-force relationship over a wide concentration range. 3. Novel adaptations were influenced in a distinct way by the outcome of previous adaptations. In consequence, adaptive alterations in kinetic and energetic properties of the phosphate uptake system, revealed during pulsewise-increases in the external phosphate concentration, depend on the pattern of previous phosphate fluctuations to which the population had been exposed. This succession of adaptive events is interpreted as a primitive form of information processing about the mode of phosphate. supply, performed by the glowing cells. 4. Information about nutrient.. fluctuations experienced by the cells of a population was transferred after cell division to daughter cells. This was shown by exposing two reference cultures, originating from the same. batch of phosphate deficient cyanobacteria, to the same amount of phosphate in two different supply modes. During subsequent growth these two cultures developed distinct adaptive potentials, which were maintained over several generations, even if they were further cultivated under identical conditions. This distinct adaptive potential affected significantly the phosphate storage capacity of daughter cells.

Title: Misuse of inorganic N and soluble reactive P concentrations to indicate nutrient status of surface waters
Journal: Journal of the North American Benthological Society
Volume: 22

Abstract: Dissolved inorganic N (DIN) and soluble reactive P (SRP) have been used by some to indicate the trophic status of waters, and concentration ratios (DIN:SRP) to indicate nutrient deficiency. The utility of such measurements should be questioned, particularly based on well-known problems associated with determination of the concentration of SRP, which is commonly assumed to represent PO43-. Another potential problem with using inorganic nutrient pools to represent trophic state and nutrient availability ratios arises because concentration values are in units of mass per unit volume, and cannot be used with certainty to estimate supply (i.e., turnover rate of the nutrient pool, expressed either in mass per unit volume per unit time or simply as per unit time) to organisms without information on uptake and remineralization. Two data sets with lotic water-column nutrient values were explored, a large, continental-scale data set with analyses and collections done by many laboratories, and a more limited data set collected and analyzed by the same laboratory. In concert, the data sets indicated that at high total N (TN) (i.e., >5 mg/L) and total P (TP) (i.e., >2 mg/L) concentrations, >60% of the nutrient is usually made up of dissolved inorganic forms, but at low levels the ratio of dissolved inorganic to total nutrients is highly variable. Last, DIN:SRP is a weak surrogate for TN:TP and thus should be used with caution to indicate nutrient limitation.
