Abstract

Microbes play a critical role in plant litter decomposition and influence the fate of carbon in rivers and riparian zones. When decomposing low-nutrient plant litter, microbes acquire nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) from the environment (i.e., nutrient immobilization), and this process is potentially sensitive to nutrient loading and changing climate. Nonetheless, environmental controls on immobilization are poorly understood because rates are also influenced by plant litter chemistry, which is coupled to the same environmental factors. Here we used a standardized, low-nutrient organic matter substrate (cotton strips) to quantify nutrient immobilization at 100 paired stream and riparian sites representing 11 biomes worldwide. Immobilization rates varied by three orders of magnitude, were greater in rivers than riparian zones, and were strongly correlated to decomposition rates. In rivers, P immobilization rates were controlled by surface water phosphate concentrations, but N immobilization rates were not related to inorganic N. The N:P of immobilized nutrients was tightly constrained to a molar ratio of 10:1 despite wide variation in surface water N:P. Immobilization rates were temperature-dependent in riparian zones but not related to temperature in rivers. However, in rivers nutrient supply ultimately controlled whether microbes could achieve the maximum expected decomposition rate at a given temperature. Collectively, we demonstrated that exogenous nutrient supply and immobilization are critical control points for decomposition of organic matter.

Abstract

River ecosystems receive and process vast quantities of terrestrial organic carbon, the fate of which depends strongly on microbial activity. Variation in and controls of processing rates, however, are poorly characterized at the global scale. In response, we used a peer-sourced research network and a highly standardized carbon processing assay to conduct a global-scale field experiment in greater than 1000 river and riparian sites. We found that Earth’s biomes have distinct carbon processing signatures. Slow processing is evident across latitudes, whereas rapid rates are restricted to lower latitudes. Both the mean rate and variability decline with latitude, suggesting temperature constraints toward the poles and greater roles for other environmental drivers (e.g., nutrient loading) toward the equator. These results and data set the stage for unprecedented “next-generation biomonitoring” by establishing baselines to help quantify environmental impacts to the functioning of ecosystems at a global scale.

Abstract

As part of the WFD implementation, Member-States must intercalibrate their ecological status evaluation systems in the context of geographical intercalibration groups (GIGs) working in comparable natural biogeographic zones and driving exercises targeted at the same typologies of watercourses (mainly based on integrated surface of the watershed at the survey site, mineralization of water and, if necessary, on altitude criteria). Phytobenthic assessment methods of the Central-Baltic GIG watercourses had been subjected to a first intercalibration cycle which was completed in 2007. Since that date, specific work has been carried out through the ECOSTAT Group in order to clarify and improve the criteria used for the validation of reference sites at the European level. That work could have changed the appropriate reference level to be retained by national watercourse type and, at the same time, the level of deviation from the appropriate reference used to establish the Ecological Status of European rivers.

Abstract

As part of the WFD implementation, Member-States must intercalibrate their ecological status evaluation systems in the context of geographical intercalibration groups (GIGs) working in comparable natural biogeographic zones and driving exercises targeted at the same typologies of watercourses (mainly based on integrated surface of the watershed at the survey site, mineralization of water and, if necessary, on altitude criteria). Phytobenthic assessment methods of the Central-Baltic GIG watercourses had been subjected to a first intercalibration cycle which was completed in 2007. Since that date, specific work has been carried out through the ECOSTAT Group in order to clarify and improve the criteria used for the validation of reference sites at the European level. That work could have changed the appropriate reference level to be retained by national watercourse type and, at the same time, the level of deviation from the appropriate reference used to establish the Ecological Status of European rivers. Therefore, it was considered necessary to renew the previous intercalibration work, following the revision of criteria for reference sites validation, by conducting a second round intercalibration involving 14 member states, or member states administrative areas using different evaluation systems. The present Volume 2 contains the appendices of the final report of the 2nd "Central-Baltic" GIG Intercalibration Round for Rivers, currently submitted to E.U. validation.; Dans le cadre d'application de la DCE, les Etats-Membres doivent intercalibrer leurs systèmes d'évaluation de l'état écologique, dans le cadre de groupes géographiques d'intercalibration (GIGs) permettant de travailler sur des zones biogéographiques naturelles comparables, et dans le cadre d'exercices ciblés sur les mêmes typologies de cours d'eau (essentiellement basés sur la surface intégrée du bassin versant au site, la minéralisation de l'eau et, si nécessaire, sur des critères d'altitude).

Abstract

Monitoring eutrophication from benthic diatoms is a common practice in Europe, since this key-compartment is one of the most sensitive to the nutrient enrichment of hydrosystems. However, they have rarely been used to model nitrogen and phosphorus nutrient contents from the responses of diatomic bioindicators. The aim of this talk is therefore to try to model nutrient contents from the scores obtained by 3 diatom indices, PSI, BDI and TDI. This comparative prediction approach is useful for implementing the WFD because it would make it possible to infer nutrient contents from the responses of the diatomic compartment, clearly more integrative of the temporal dimension than an instantaneous water sampling. After log transformation of the nutrient contents, the responses of the PSI and of the BDI follow a linear adjustment and are consistent (R2 of 0.39 versus 0.35). The linear relationship with the TDI is weaker (0, 20), but fits better with a polynomial regression of degree 2 (0.30). The type of watercourse makes a significant influence on the physiognomy and the quality of the relationships found. The responses of these 3 indices to nitrates are weaker, PSI being the most correlated to this nutrient (0.19). It is difficult to find a convincing pattern from graphics for this relationship (large, feathered cloud shape, probably very influenced on some sites by the presence of other more biologically active nutrients). A need for indices more sensitive to the specific effects of this nutrient is therefore felt and constitutes a working track to be pursued, in REBECCA or other future works., Le monitoring de l'eutrophisation à partir des diatomées benthiques est une pratique courante en Europe, vu que ce maillon-clé est l'un des plus sensibles à l'enrichissement des hydrosystèmes en nutriments. Cependant, ils ont rarement été utilisés pour modéliser des teneurs en nutriments azotés et phosphorés à partir des réponses des bio-indicateurs diatomiques. Le but de la présente communication est donc d'essayer de déduire des teneurs en nutriments à partir des notes obtenues par 3 indices diatomiques, l'IPS, l'IBD et le TDI. Cette approche comparée de prédiction est utile à la mise en application de l'DCE car elle permettrait d'inférer des teneurs en nutriments à partir des réponses du compartiment diatomique, nettement plus intégrateur de la dimension temporelle qu'un prélèvement d'eau instantané. Après transformation log des teneurs en nutriments, les réponses de l'IPS et de l'IBD suivent un ajustement linéaire et sont consistantes (R2 de 0,39 versus 0,35), la relation linéaire avec le TDI est plus faible (0,20), mais s'ajuste mieux avec une régression polynomiale de degré 2 (0,30). Le type de cours d'eau influe sensiblement sur la physionomie et la qualité des relations trouvées. Les réponses des 3 indices aux nitrates sont plus faible, l'IPS étant le plus corrélé des 3 à ce nutriment (0,19). Il est difficile de dégager un patron convaincant des graphiquespour cette relation (forme du nuage large et en drapeau, probablement très influencée sur certains sites par la présence d'autres nutriments plus biologiquement actifs). Un besoin en indices plus sensibles aux effets de ce nutriment est donc ressenti et constitue une piste de travail à poursuivre, dans REBECCA ou dans d'autres travaux futurs.

Abstract

River ecosystems receive and process vast quantities of terrestrial organic carbon, the fate of which depends strongly on microbial activity. Variation in and controls of processing rates, however, are poorly characterized at the global scale. In response, we used a peer-sourced research network and a highly standardized carbon processing assay to conduct a global-scale field experiment in greater than 1000 river and riparian sites. We found that Earth's biomes have distinct carbon processing signatures. Slow processing is evident across latitudes, whereas rapid rates are restricted to lower latitudes. Both the mean rate and variability decline with latitude, suggesting temperature constraints toward the poles and greater roles for other environmental drivers (e.g., nutrient loading) toward the equator. These results and data set the stage for unprecedented "next-generation biomonitoring" by establishing baselines to help quantify environmental impacts to the functioning of ecosystems at a global scale.

Abstract

For a long time, lakes were considered unimportant in the global carbon (C) cycle because of their small total area compared to the ocean. Over the last two decades, a number of studies have highlighted the important role of lakes in both sequestering atmospheric C and modifying the C flux from the catchment by degassing CO2 and methane and burying calcite and organic matter in the sediment. Based on a full C mass balance, high frequency measurements of lake metabolism and stable isotope analysis of a large shallow eutrophic lake in Estonia, we assess the role alkaline lakes play in augmenting the strength of terrestrial carbonate weathering as a temporary CO2 sink. We show that a large part of organic C buried in the sediments in this type of lakes originates from the catchment although a direct uptake from the atmosphere during periods of intensive phytoplankton growth in eutrophic conditions contributes to the carbon sink., (Copyright © 2016 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract

The eastern Baltic Sea near the Estonian coast is heavily navigated by numerous cargo ships and oil tankers. Hundreds of accidents and oil spills happen yearly in this area. Yet, there is a lack of data concerning the distribution and effects of the environmental contaminants, especially polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Different parts of the Baltic Sea have different levels of contamination; therefore a wide range of monitoring stations in coastal areas in the Gulf of Finland and Gulf of Riga were chosen. The aim of the present research was to document the responses of chosen biomarkers of environmental contaminants in different unstudied areas of the Estonian coastal sea. During 2009 and 2010 we measured PAH metabolites, EROD activities, geno- and cytotoxicity, histology, parasites and other biomarkers from the eelpout (Zoarces viviparus), a resident benthic fish species. The results showed that fish from the Gulf of Riga emitted lower levels of fluorescence in fixed wavelength analyses (representing equivalents of PAH metabolites in bile and urine), and consistently, showed less geno- and cytotoxicity and parasite infection, higher liver somatic index (LSI) and a higher condition factor (CF) than fish inhabiting areas close to the Baltic proper and in the Gulf of Finland. The results point to the effect of long-range contaminant transportation, whether atmospheric or hydrodynamic, and also to the intensive shipping activity in international routes. This study fills the gap of knowledge in this area that has persisted until now. Nevertheless, more studies in this area on the different groups of contaminants are necessary, to specify the factors that are responsible for observed biological effects.
