Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
Surface d15NPON increased 3.92 ± 0.48‰ over the course of 20 days following additions of iron (Fe) to an eddy in close proximity to the Antarctic Polar Front in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean. The change in d15NPON was associated with an increase in the >20 µm size fraction, leading to a maximal difference of 6.23‰ between the >20 µm and <20 µm size fractions. Surface d13CPOC increased 1.18 ± 0.31‰ over the same period. After a decrease in particulate organic matter in the surface layer, a second phytoplankton community developed that accumulated less biomass, had a slower growth rate and was characterized by an offset of 1.56‰ in d13CPOC relative to the first community. During growth of the second community, surface d13CPOC further increased 0.83 ± 0.13‰. Here we speculate on ways that carboxylation, nitrogen assimilation, substrate pool enrichment and community composition may have contributed to the gradual increase in d13CPOC associated with phytoplankton biomass accumulation, as well as the systematic offset in d13CPOC between the two phytoplankton communities. |
