Title | Temperature and Nutrient Supply Interact to Control Nitrogen Fixation in Oligotrophic Streams: An Experimental Examination |
Creator | Marcarelli, Amy M. Wurtsbaugh, Wayne A. |
Description | We performed two experiments to examine how temperature and nutrients interact to control dinitrogen (N2) fixation, chlorophyll a (Chl a) biomass, and community composition of periphyton in subalpine oligotrophic streams in the Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho. We grew periphyton on nutrient-diffusing substrata (NDS) in a cold lake inlet (7°C) and a warm lake outlet (18°C). We then switched substrata between the two stream sites to test the effect of incubation temperature on N2-fixation rates.... |
