摘要

Although nitrogen stable isotope ratio (δ~(15) N) in macroalgae is widely used as a bioindicator of anthropogenic nitrogen inputs to the coastal zone, recent studies suggest the possible role of macroalgae metabolism in δ~(15)N variability. Simultaneous determinations of δ~(15)N of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) along the land—sea continuum, inter-species variability of δ~(15)N and its sensitivity to environmental factors are necessary to confirm the efficiency of macroalgae δ~(15)N in monitoring nitrogen origin in mixed-use watersheds. In this study, δ~(15)N of annual and perennial macroalgae (Ulva sp., Enteromorpha sp., Fucus vesiculosus and Fucus serratus) are compared to δ~(15)N-DIN along the Charente Estuary, after characterizing δ~(15)N of the three main DIN sources (i.e. cultivated area, pasture, sewage treatment plant outlet). During late winter and spring, when human activities produce high DIN inputs, DIN sources exhibit distinct δ~(15)N signals in nitrate (NO_3~-) and ammonium (NH_4~+): cultivated area (+6.5 ± 0.6‰ and +9.0 ± 11.0‰), pasture (+9.2 ± 1.8‰ and +12.4‰) and sewage treatment plant discharge (+16.9 ± 8.7‰ and +25.4 ± 5.9‰. While sources show distinct δ~(15)N - NO_3~- in this multiple source catchment, the overall mixture of NO_3~- sources — generally >95% DIN - leads to low variations of δ~(15)N - NO_3~- at the mouth of the estuary (+7.7 to +8.4‰). Even if estuarine δ~(15)N - NO_3~- values are not significantly different from pristine continental and oceanic site (+7.3‰ and +7.4‰), macroalgae δ~(15)N values are generally higher at the mouth of the estuary. This highlights high anthropogenic DIN inputs in the estuary, and enhanced contribution of ~(15)N-depleted NH_4~+ in oceanic waters. Although seasonal variations in δ~(15)N - NO_3~- are low, the same temporal trends in macroalgae δ~(15)N values at estuarine and oceanic sites, and inter-species differences in δ~(15)N values, suggest that macroalgae δ~(15)N values might be modified by the metabolic response of macroalgae to environmental parameters (e.g., temperature, light, DIN concentrations). Differences between annual and perennial macroalgae indicate both a higher integration time of perennial compared to annual macroalgae and the possible role of passive versus active uptake mechanisms. Further studies are required to characterize the sensitivity of macroalgae fractionation to variable environmental conditions and uptake mechanisms.
