Kelp carbon sink potential decreases with warming due to accelerating decomposi...
Filbee-Dexter, Karen; Feehan, Colette J.; Smale, Dan A.; Krumhansi, Kira A.; Augustine, Skye; De Bettignies, Florian; Burrows, Michael T.Cycling of organic carbon in the ocean has the potential to mitigate or exacerbate global climate change, but major questions remain about the environmental controls on organic carbon flux in the coastal zone. Here, we used a field experiment distributed across 28° of latitude, and the entire range of 2 dominant kelp species in the northern hemisphere, to measure decomposition rates of kelp detritus on the seaf...
The microbiome of the habitat‐forming brown alga Fucus vesiculosus (Phaeophycea...
Capistrant‐Fossa, Kyle A.; Morrison, Hilary G.; Engelen, Aschwin; Quigley, Charlotte T.C.; Morozov, Aleksey; Serrao, Ester; Brodie, JulietLatitudinal diversity gradients have provided many insights into species differentiation and community processes. In the well-studied intertidal zone, however, little is known about latitudinal diversity in microbiomes associated with habitat-forming hosts. We investigated microbiomes of Fucus vesiculosus because of deep understanding of this model system and its latitudinally large, cross-Atlantic range. Given...
