We examined how the projected increase in atmospheric CO₂ and concomitant shifts in air temperature and precipitation affect water and carbon fluxes in an Asian tropical rainforest, using a combination of field measurements, simplified hydrological and carbon models, and Global Climate Model (GCM) projections. The model links the canopy photosynthetic flux with transpiration via a bulk canopy conductance and semi-empirical models of intercellular CO₂ concentration, with the transpiration rate determined from a hydrologic balance model. The primary forcing to the hydrologic model are current and projected rainfall statistics. A main novelty in this analysis is that the effect of increased air temperature on vapor pressure deficit (D) and the effects of shifts in precipitation statistics on net radiation are explicitly considered. The model is validated against field measurements conducted in a tropical rainforest in Sarawak, Malaysia under current climate conditions. On the basis of this model and projected shifts in climatic statistics by GCM, we compute the probability distribution of soil moisture and other hydrologic fluxes. Regardless of projected and computed shifts in soil moisture, radiation and mean air temperature, transpiration was not appreciably altered. Despite increases in atmospheric CO₂ concentration (C_a) and unchanged transpiration, canopy photosynthesis does not significantly increase if C_i/C_a is assumed constant independent of D (where C_i is the bulk canopy intercellular CO₂ concentration). However, photosynthesis increased by a factor of 1.5 if C_i/C_a decreased linearly with D as derived from Leuning stomatal conductance formulation [R. Leuning. Plant Cell Environ 1995;18:339–55]. How elevated atmospheric CO₂ alters the relationship between C_i/C_a and D needs to be further investigated under elevated atmospheric CO₂ given its consequence on photosynthesis (and concomitant carbon sink) projections.  相似文献   

Modelling Fluxes and Concentrations of CO 2 , H 2 O and Sensible Heat Within and Above a Mountain Meadow Canopy: A Comparison of Three Lagrangian Models and Three Parameterisation Options for the Lagrangian Time Scale     

Georg Wohlfahrt 《Boundary-Layer Meteorology》2004,113(1):43-80

Two simple analytical Lagrangian and a Lagrangian random walk model,together with three options for the parameterisation of the Lagrangian timescale, are compared in their ability to predict fluxes and scalar concentrationsof CO₂, H₂O and sensible heat within and above a mountain meadowin the eastern Alps. Results indicate that both scalar concentrations and ecosystemfluxes exhibit little sensitivity to the differences between the investigated modelsand may be predicted satisfactorily by one of the simpler models so long as thesource/sink strength is parameterised correctly. Model results also show littlesensitivity to the parameterisation of the vertical variation of the Lagrangiantime scale, yet the increase of the Lagrangian time scale towards the groundpredicted by one of the three investigated parameterisation options resulted inless agreement with measurements as compared to the other two, which assumedthe Lagrangian time scale to be either constant with height or to decay towardszero at the ground surface. Correspondence between simulated and measuredfluxes and scalar concentrations of CO₂, H₂O and sensible heat weregenerally satisfactory, except for shortly after the meadow was cut, when thesignificant increase of respiratory carbon losses could not be captured by themodel.  相似文献

Ecophysiological Studies on Size-fractionated Phytoplankton Populations by Tracer Technique in Wadi el Majanin Dam,Libya     

M. A. Khan 《洁净——土壤、空气、水》1998,26(1):40-44

Wadi el Majanin, one of the largest hydraulic structures in Libya was studied for ecophysiological aspects in relation to ambient environment. The waterbody is alkaline (pH=7.2) and characteristic of hydrogen-carbonate (144.8 mg L^–1 CaCO₃) system. Vertical extinction coefficients (> 4.8) indicate very high (biogenic) turbidity. Conspicuous variations of a quantitative kind in algal development (e.g., Pediastrum bloom) together with abundant diatom populations (chlorococcales-diatom assemblage), apart from very common occurrence of cyanobacteria and euglenoids show eutrophic water condition. Winter-summer alternation induced pronounced seasonal variability in the rates of in situ planktonic algal photosynthetic activities (285.7...1305 mg m^–3 d^–1 C). Dark fixation activity, attributed largely to bacterial production, oscillated by order of 2-fold magnitude, characterized by summer maxima (47.6 mg m^–3 d^–1 C). Size-fractional analysis established that smaller forms (< 60 μm), broadly regarded nanno-phytoplankton, frequently dominated (c. 70%) overall algal productivity.  相似文献   

The beam attenuation to chlorophyll ratio: an optical index of phytoplankton physiology in the surface ocean?   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Michael J. Behrenfeld  Emmanuel Boss 《Deep Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research Papers》2003,50(12):1537-1549

The particulate beam attenuation coefficient (c_p) is proportional to the concentration of suspended particles in a size domain overlapping that of the phytoplankton assemblage. c_p is largely insensitive to changes in intracellular chlorophyll concentration, which varies with growth irradiance (a process termed ‘photoacclimation’). Earlier studies have shown that the ratio of c_p:chlorophyll (i.e., c_p^*) exhibits depth-dependent changes that are consistent with photoacclimation. Similar relationships may likewise be expected in the horizontal and temporal dimensions, reflecting changes in mixing depth, incident irradiance, and light attenuation. A link between c_p^* and more robust photoadaptive variables has never been explicitly tested in the field. Here we use five historical field data sets to directly compare spatial and temporal variability in c_p^* with two independent indices of photoacclimation: the light-saturated, chlorophyll-normalized photosynthetic rate, P^b_opt, and the light-saturation index, E_k. For the variety of oceanographic conditions considered, a first-order correlation emerged between c_p^* and P^b_opt or E_k. These simple empirical results suggest that a relationship exists between a bio-optical variable that can potentially be retrieved remotely (c_p^*) and physiological variables crucial for estimating primary productivity in the sea.  相似文献   

Primary production and implications for metabolic balance in Hawaiian lee eddies     

Patricia M. McAndrew  Robert R. Bidigare  David M. Karl 《Deep Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography》2008,55(10-13):1300

Recent discrepancies between geochemical and biological approaches for determining whether ocean ecosystems are net heterotrophic or net autotrophic have led to uncertainty in the net metabolic state of open ocean ecosystems. Geochemical approaches indicate that the oceans are net positive autotrophic, but direct observations based on short-term incubation techniques suggest that the ocean is in a state of net heterotrophy. One hypothesis for the apparent discrepancy is that net autotrophic production occurs in aperiodic “bursts,” which are superimposed on a more constant background state of net heterotrophy. Mixing events, which introduce new nutrients to the surface ocean, provide one mechanism for fueling such aperiodic bursts of net production. In conjunction with the Eddy Flux (E-Flux) program in the lee of the Hawaiian Islands during winter 2004–2005, we examined the relationship between photosynthesis and irradiance (P vs. E) in surface waters inside and outside of two cold-core, cyclonic eddies, and conducted five incubation experiments to examine the metabolic response of mixed-layer plankton communities to nutrient-rich deep-sea water additions. Our results showed that in the mixed layer, maximum rates of light-saturated photosynthesis, derived from photosynthesis–irradiance experiments were not significantly different inside vs. outside the eddies (p=0.35 and 0.44 for E-Flux I and E-Flux III, respectively). Addition of nutrients to mixed-layer water showed that (1) gross primary production (GPP) became decoupled from a more constant rate of respiration and (2) net system metabolism shifted from approximate balance, or slight net heterotrophy, to a demonstrably net autotrophic system. From these results, we determined that the threshold GPP for net autotrophic production for the mixed layer of the study region was 1.65 mmol O₂ m⁻³ d⁻¹, which is consistent with previous estimates for the oligotrophic open ocean.  相似文献

对毛乌素沙地稀疏阶段、建成阶段和衰老阶段的油蒿群落的野外观测实验结果表明,不同演替阶段的油蒿群落对环境的适应性和生理生态特性表现出明显的差异。随群落盖度的增加,0—20 cm土层中土壤含水量明显增加,而在20—80 cm范围内有所下降。与稀疏阶段和建成阶段的油蒿群落相比,衰老阶段的油蒿群落的平均净光合速率低,光饱合点低,光能及水分利用效率最低,并且日变化过程也表现出受到了明显环境胁迫。在不同的演替阶段,油蒿的气孔导度与植物水势均呈线性相关。随植物水势的降低,处于衰老阶段的油蒿气孔导度降低速率最快。结合气孔导度和水分循环的关系,还初步探讨了毛乌素沙地油蒿群落演替的主要驱动因子。  相似文献   

Estimating the compensation irradiance in the ocean: The importance of accounting for non-photosynthetic uptake of inorganic carbon     

《Deep Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research Papers》2014

The compensation irradiance, the irradiance at which net photosynthesis is zero over a 24-h period, was estimated at station ALOHA (22°45′N, 158°W) from analysis of ¹⁴C uptake rates measured from 8 January 1989 to 13 June 1990 at depths ranging from 5 to 175 m. The estimates were made on the basis of linear regressions of the difference between light bottle and dark bottle ¹⁴C uptake in the light-limited region of the euphotic zone and determination of the depth at which the difference between the uptake rates was zero. About half of the non-photosynthetic ¹⁴C uptake at the compensation irradiance could be attributed to chemolithoautotrophy; the remainder was presumably due to anaplerotic processes. Deriving the compensation irradiance by extrapolating dawn-to-dawn light-bottle uptake above the compensation irradiance to zero resulted in underestimation of the compensation irradiance by a factor of 2. We estimated the compensation irradiance at station ALOHA to be 0.054 mol-photons m⁻² d⁻¹, about 0.11% of surface 400–700 nm radiation and 1% of surface 475-nm (blue) light.  相似文献
