Abstract

The effects of free CO2 (CO2(aq)) on photosynthetic carbon isotopic fractionation of the seagrass Thalassia testudinum were examined using four marine mesocosms at the University of Rhode Island Marine Ecosystems Research Laboratory (MERL). Seedlings and 1-yr-old plants were cultured without substrate for 57 days in seawater media with unmanipulated CO2(aq) levels and approximately 2X, 4X and 10X equilibrium (i.e. 11 mu m CO2(aq)) levels. Fractionation of stable carbon isotopes generally increased as a function of CO2 (aq)), ranging from 12.1 to 21.0 ppt for the year-old plants and from 8.1 to 15.4% ppt for the seedlings. The larger isotopic fractionation effects exhibited by the year-old plants, as compared to those exhibited by seedlings, may have reflected reduced contributions of isotopically heavy seed reserves. Because of inter-mesocosm pH variability, mean CO2(aq)) levels in the unmanipulated mesocosm were about 15% higher, although mean levels of total dissolved inorganic carbon were about 24% lower, than in the 2X mesocosm. Comparatively larger fractionations exhibited by seedlings and year-old plants in the unmanipulated mesocosm suggest a greater importance for CO2(aq)) and a correspondingly lower relative importance of HCO3- as the initial substrate for carbon fixation in this species.
