1 Phytoplankton and Primary Production ( garden) Marine habitats High tide Supralitoral Low tide Pelagic zone Litoral Sublitoral neritic Bathyal oceanic Epipelagic Mesopelagic Bathypelagic Benthic habitats Abyssal Abyssopelagic Hadal pelagic Hadal (Lalli & Parsons 1995)
2 Communities of the marine pelagic zone Plankton: Nekton: Benthos: Neuston: Organisms buoyant and passively drifting in the water, unable to actively move against the water currents. - Virioplankton - Bacterioplankton - Mycoplankton - Phytoplankton - Protozooplankton / Metazooplankton Actively moving and migrating organisms Organisms living in benthic habitats. Viriobenthos, Bacteriobenthos, Mycobenthos, Phytobenthos, Zoobenthos. Organisms living at the air-sea interface. Producers Consumers Decomposers Plankton size classes Size (m) Body weight Size (Sieburth 1978)
3 Primary Production light as a resource De novo synthesis of organic matter from inorganic constituents by autotrophic organisms. If the energy source is light: photoautotrophic 6 H 2 O + 6 CO 2 C 6 H 12 O O 2 Light reaction (absorption by light-harvesting pigments and chlorophyll a) H 2 O + NADP + + Pi + ADP ½O 2 + NADPH + H + + ATP Dark reaction (Calvin-Benzon Cycle) CO 2 + NADPH + H + + ATP CH 2 O + NADP + + ADP + Pi Light harvesting pigments of phytoplankton (
4 Light harvesting pigments of phytoplankton (Lalli & Parsons 1995) Primary Production Controlling factors of primary production: Light (ressource and environmental factor!) photosynthetic active radiation (PAR): nm Temperature Hydrography, Stratification Nutrients
5 Primary Production Light (P vs I curve) Photosynthetic rate mg C (mg Chl x l x h) -1 Pmax α I c I i : I (µe m -2 s -1 ) Irradiance Controlled by: light reaction dark reaction α: slope Ic: light saturation Ii: light inhibition Light adaptation of phytoplankton groups low light-adapted high light-adapted
6 Vertical attenuation of light in the water column Exponential attenuation with depth (absorption by pigments and dissolved organic substances and scattering by ions and particles) Attenuation is wave length-specific Euphotic depth: photosynthesis = respiration (0.1-1% of surface light intensity) (Lalli & Parsons 1995) Vertical zonation of light in the water column (Lalli & Parsons 1995)
7 Controlling factors for the light climate in the euphotic zone (Lalli & Parsons 1995) Temperature as controlling factor Direct control of primary production of minor importance. Light reaction of photosynthesis little controlled by temperature. Indirect control by hydrographic conditions (blooms only develop when euphotic depth exceeds critical depth)
8 Temperature as controlling factor Sverdrup's Model of Critical Depth Photosynthesis decreases exponentially with depth due to decrease in light availability. Respiration is unaffected by light and remains constant with depth. Phytoplankton is mixed by turbulence and experiences different light intensities over time, sometimes above and sometimes below compensation point. Critical depth = depth at which photosynthesis of the total water column phytoplankton population equals their total respiration. A phytoplankton population can only proliferate if mixing is shallower than the critical depth. Only then is the population net production >0 (Lalli & Parsons 1995) Nutrients Macro-Nutrients: C, N, P, Si, S, K, Ca, Mg. Micro-Nutrients: Fe, Zn, Mb, Cl - Vitamins Available form of macro-nutrients (C, N, P, Si, S)?
9 Nutrient uptake Uptake rate Michaelis-Menten Kinetics: V = V max x [S] / (K s + [S]) Concentration Nutrient requirements and limitation Phytoplankton biomass - C : N : P = 106 : 16 : 1 (Redfield-ratio) In most cases N or P are limiting (sometimes Fe). N : P > 16 P-limitation N : P < 16 N-limitation

12 Annual vertical pattern of primary production and nutrients (Lalli & Parsons 1995) Saisonal pattern of primary production in various climatic regions (Lalli & Parsons 1995)

16 Richelia intracellularis in a diatom cell (Bar Zeev et al., ISME J 2: 911, 2008) Cyanobacteria important components of the phytoplankton in oligotrophic subtropical and tropical oceans. constitute populations at the lower end of the euphotic zone (deep chlorophyll maximum) in stratified seas. important sources of new nitrogen in N-limited regions (oligotrophic subtropical and tropical oceans). This source has been seriously underestimated in the past.
17 Diatoms 250 genera with appr species. chloroplasts with chlorophyll a and fucoxanthin. single cells or colony-forming, silicate frustule with epy- and hypotheca. suborders Biddulphiales (Centrales) and Bacillariales (Pennales). asexual reproduction usual, but sexual reproduction and formation of auxospores possible.
