内部栄養循環が水質動向に与える影響

はじめに 内部栄養循環とは、水系内における栄養塩の移動と変換を、外部からの流入や流出を伴わずに、生物学的、化学的、物理的なプロセスによって駆動されることを指します。この内部栄養塩貯蔵庫は、堆積物や有機物に蓄えられることが多く、窒素やリンなどの主要元素の利用可能性を調整することで、水質の傾向に大きな影響を与えます。

Soil Organic Carbon Loss When Grassland Converts to Cropland

Grassland ecosystems hold substantial stores of soil organic carbon (SOC) that accumulate from perennial plant inputs, root systems, and slow decomposition processes. When grasslands are converted to cropland, the disturbance from tillage, removal of perennial roots, changes in residue inputs, and alterations in soil moisture dynamics frequently lead to SOC losses. Understanding the magnitude and

Construction of Food Webs from Niches and Trophic Levels
General
/
Admin
Introduction Ecological communities are intricate tapestries woven from the roles organisms play and the interactions they establish. Food webs capture this complexity by mapping who eats whom and how energy and nutrients flow through ecosystems. Central to these networks are two foundational concepts: niches, which describe the functional role of each species, and trophic levels, […]

Eltonian vs Grinnellian Niches: Concepts, Uses, and Implications for Ecology and Conservation
Introduction Niche theory has long served as a cornerstone of ecological thought, shaping how scientists understand species behavior, community structure, and the dynamics of ecosystems. Eltonian and Grinnellian niches represent two influential, but distinct, lenses through which niches can be defined and studied. While both concepts aim to describe the role of a species within
How Ocean Warming Drives Coral Bleaching Events: Mechanisms, Impacts, and Emerging Responses
Introduction Coral reefs are among the most productive and diverse ecosystems on Earth, supporting countless species and providing essential services to coastal communities. Yet they stand at the frontline of climate-driven change, with ocean warming acting as a principal driver of mass bleaching events. When sea temperatures rise above the long-term summer maximum for extended
Regions Most at Risk from Ocean Acidification
Ocean acidification is a pervasive consequence of the rising carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere. When CO2 dissolves in seawater, it forms carbonic acid, which lowers pH and reduces the availability of carbonate ions necessary for calcifying organisms. This process affects coral reefs, shellfish, phytoplankton, and the broader marine food web, with cascading implications for
Vulnerability of Marine Species to Ocean Acidification (OA) and Ocean Warming (OW): A Comprehensive Overview
Introduction Ocean acidification (OA) and ocean warming (OW) are two interconnected stressors reshaping marine ecosystems. OA reduces theAvailability of carbonate ions necessary for calcifying organisms to build shells and skeletons, while OW alters metabolic rates, distribution, phenology, and the structure of marine communities. Together, these stressors can amplify each other’s effects, threatening biodiversity, ecosystem services,
Effective Policies to Reduce CO2 Emissions with a Focus on Oceanic Carbon Absorption
Introduction The large oceans act as a major sink for atmospheric carbon, absorbing a substantial portion of CO2 emitted from human activities. While this natural process provides a buffering effect against rapid atmospheric CO2 buildup, it also interacts with ocean chemistry and ecosystems in ways that can affect marine life and climate feedbacks. Effective policy
Impact of Internal Nutrient Cycling on Water Quality Trends
Introduction Internal nutrient cycling refers to the movement and transformation of nutrients within an aquatic system without external inputs or outputs, driven by biological, chemical, and physical processes. This internal reservoir of nutrients—often stored in sediments and organic matter—can substantially influence water quality trends by modulating the availability of key elements such as nitrogen and
Keystone Taxa Driving Nutrient Cycling in Freshwater Lakes
Keystone taxa shape the architecture of nutrient cycling in freshwater lakes, steering the flow of elements through complex, interdependent food webs. In these aquatic systems, a handful of organisms exert outsized influence on how nutrients are transformed, stored, and released. By shaping microbial community structure, enabling or constraining metabolic pathways, and mediating chemical transformations at
Nutrient Cycling, Water Security, and Downstream Uses: Interconnections for Healthy Rivers and Sustainable Futures
Nutrient cycling is the backbone of healthy freshwater ecosystems. The movement of nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, carbon, and sulfur through soils, water, plants, and microbial communities underpins water quality, aquatic productivity, and the resilience of downstream communities. When nutrient cycles operate within natural ranges, they support productive fisheries, reliable drinking water sources, and sustainable
Management Strategies Protecting Nutrient Cycling While Ensuring Water Security
Introduction Nutrient cycling and water security are deeply intertwined in both natural ecosystems and human-managed landscapes. Nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus drive productivity, soil fertility, and ecosystem resilience, yet imbalances can degrade water quality and deplete water resources. The challenge is to design and implement management strategies that maintain robust nutrient cycling—enabling nutrients to
