摘要

Short-term changes in the photosynthetic carbon metabolism and physiological state of phytoplankton were studied over a summer fortnight-long period in the Urdaibai estuary (Bay of Biscay) and related to observed environmental patterns. Day-to-day variability in the hydrographical and biological features of the estuary during the study period was due to changes in meteorological and tidal conditions. Phytoplankton biomass and primary production increased with the improvement of weather, i.e., light conditions, during neap tides. Thus a mixed bloom of cryptophyceans, Euglena sp., and the dinoflagellate Peridinium foliaceum developed in the middle and upper estuary. Photosynthetic responses of phytoplankton were related to the time-scale of changes in light regime. Allocation of photosynthate to major macromolecular classes (LMWM, lipid, polysaccharide, and protein), like phytoplankton biomass and primary production, showed strong spatio-temporal variability. High carbon fixation into low molecular weight metabolites was associated with growth limitation by low light. The relative incorporation of photosynthetic carbon into proteins increased at the beginning of the phytoplankton bloom but overall, it was rather constant. However, carbon allocation into storage products such us lipid or polysaccharide increased when carbon and energy produced under optimal growth conditions exceeded what could be assimilated into protein. These patterns are explained by both spatio-temporal changes in the environmental conditions and species-specific differences. In general, daily variability appeared to the more important than diurnal periodicity in the physiological responses of phytoplankton. Results from this study show that phytoplankton photosynthesis and carbon metabolism are simultaneously affected by biotic and abiotic factors, although short-term light fluctuations may have a major influence on the physiological state of phytoplankton in the Urdaibai estuary.
