Nitrogen deposition and warming – effects on phytoplankton nutrient limitation in subarctic lakes

Abstract: The aim of this study was to predict the combined effects of enhanced nitrogen (N) deposition and warming on phytoplankton development in high latitude and mountain lakes. Consequently, we assessed, in a series of enclosure experiments, how lake water nutrient stoichiometry and phytoplankton nutrient limitation varied over the growing season in 11 lakes situated along an altitudinal/climate gradient with low N-deposition (<1 kg N ha(-1)  yr(-1) ) in northern subarctic Sweden. Short-term bioassay experiments wi… Show more

“…The majority of the hydrological loading to these lakes occurs during spring snowmelt and autumn rains, and such inputs are much lower during summer (cf. Bergströ m et al 2008Bergströ m et al , 2013, during which time internal processes, such as nutrient regeneration from the sediments (cf. Levine and Schindler 1992), or as indicated from our results, nutrient regeneration by zooplankton appears to become an important determinant of nutrient availability to phytoplankton.…”

“…The terrestrial net primary production, which is correlated with air temperature, ranges from 2 g C m À2 yr À1 (high-alpine) to 250 g C m À2 yr À1 (sub-alpine) . Precipitation (Karlsson et al 2005) and N deposition varies little with altitude; wet dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) deposition , 0.3 kg N ha À1 yr À1 (Bergströ m et al 2013). Anthropogenic influences via land use are negligible.…”
