attribute NC_GLOBAL acquisition_description String Laboratory analysis

NH4+ and NO3- concentrations were measured at the University of Washington
Marine Chemistry Lab (methods from UNESCO 1994). Concentration values from
2011 were corrected for rain dilution using the change in salinity measured
over the incubation period assuming no addition of NH4+ or NO3- to the pools
from the rainfall.\u00a0

NH4+ isotopic composition was measured according to a modified version of
Zhang et al. (2007) after isotope dilution to less than 500\u2030 to prevent
isotopic contamination of the natural abundance-level mass spectrometer
system. Briefly, NH4+ is oxidized to nitrite using hypobromite then reduced to
N2O using acetic acid buffered sodium azide before analysis on an isotope
ratio mass spectrometer (IRMS). In modification of the prior method, pre-
existing NO2- was removed prior to hypobromite addition by reaction with
sulfamic acid. To a 20 mL sample volume, 340 \u00b5L 20 mmol L-1 sulfamic acid
and 10 \u00b5L 10% HCl was added and allowed to react for 12 hours at room
temperature. A second improvement was the addition of 6 mol L-1 HCl to reduce
the pH of the sample below 7 prior to the addition of an azide-100% acetic
acid reagent. Isotope determinations were made at U. Massachusetts Dartmouth
using a GV IsoPrime IRMS, a custom purge-trap sample preparation system, and a
CTC PAL autosampler. Reproducibility was better than \u00b1 0.5\u2030. \u00a0

Filters and algal samples were dried at 60\u00b0C for 48 h and elemental and
isotopic analyses were made at the University of Chicago and at Yale
University. Samples were run using a Costech 4010 Elemental Analyzer
combustion system coupled to a Thermo DeltaV Plus IRMS via a Thermo Conflo IV
interface (University of Chicago), or using the same Elemental Analyzer
coupled to a Thermo DeltaXP Advantage IRMS via a Thermo Conflo III interface
(Yale University). \u00a0Reproducibility was better than \u00b1 0.1\u2030.

attribute NC_GLOBAL projects_0_acronym String Regenerated Nitrogen
attribute NC_GLOBAL projects_0_description String We described patterns of nitrogen isotopes that change over spatial gradients of animal abundance, with isotopic enrichment patterns consistent with a role for animal excretion (Pfister et al, ms). We have quantified the microbes associated with intertidal mussels with metagenomics (Pfister et al. 2010 and 16S rRNA sequencing of the v4 region (Pfister et al, submitted). We used a novel experimental approach in which stable isotope tracers were added to exposed tidepools utilizing them as temporary mesocosms to quantify N transformation rates (Pather et al.,L&O). Large tracer signals were observed over the typical 4-5 hr experimental period in both the dilution of the isotope label in its added form (NH4+ or NO3-) and the appearance of the label in products (e.g. NO2-) The primary advantage was that all members of community participated in the experiment allowing us to recognize the complexity of nitrogen cycling in this system. This funding also supported long-term global change research on Tatoosh Island (Wootton & Pfister 2012 ).   
Project Summary From Original Proposal
A fundamental and persistent question in a multitude of ecosystems is the extent to which new versus regenerated nutrients support ecosystem productivity. In coastal marine systems, nitrate derived from upwelling (=new nitrogen) and ammonium regeneration in coastal waters and sediments (=regenerated nitrogen) are major nitrogen sources that fuel coastal ocean productivity. Because inorganic nitrogen availability clearly regulates production in a large number of areas, understanding nitrogen supply is essential. In open coast regions away from river mouths, nitrate inputs are determined by large-scale physical processes promoting upwelling of deep, nutrient-rich water including wind direction and intensity. In contrast, regenerated nitrogen (mainly ammonium) is generally the result of local animal and microbial processes. Along marine rocky shores, where upwelling is typically used as a proxy for productivity, we know very little about the dynamics of regenerated nutrients and their potential contribution to productivity at larger scales; only upwelling is typically used as a proxy for productivity. Associations of the abundant California mussel, Mytilus californianus, with water nutrients, algal productivity, stable isotope signatures, and microbial genetics indicate potentially strong regeneration of nitrogen by these animals and suggests an important secondary role of nitrifying microbes affiliated with these animals.
We propose collaborative work to quantify the relative contribution of regenerated nitrogen on rocky shores through censuses and experiments across a gradient of mussel abundance. We will use stable nitrogen and oxygen isotopes of ammonium, nitrite, and nitrate to disentangle the contribution of different biological processes versus upwelling to the nitrogen supply and uptake of rocky shore regions. This includes both natural abundance and tracer addition studies.

attribute NC_GLOBAL summary String We evaluated the role of mussels by adding 15N-labeled NH4+ to an assemblage
of tidepools where they were either present at natural abundance levels, or
absent through manual removal. \u00a0The role of phototrophs was separately
examined by conducting these experiments both during the day and at night.
\u00a0The tidal height of pools varied between 1.2 to 1.5 m above Mean Lower
Low Water (MLLW). Tidepools were thus isolated from each other as well as the
nearshore environment during the low tide period when experiments were
conducted. Each experiment included 4 to 5 mussel removal (MR) tidepools
(since 2002) and 4 to 5 mussel control (MC) tidepools with natural mussel
densities. \u00a0In June 2010, we performed daytime NH4+ tracer experiments
and in August 2010 nighttime experiments using the same tidepools. The
following year (July 2011) these experiments were repeated with the addition
of bottle incubations (see below) to evaluate the effects of suspended
tidepool components and extended sampling for 6 days after the initial 15N
addition to test for long-term retention of NH4+. \u00a0During the 2011
experiments, unforeseen rain reduced the salinity in some pools by up to 51%,
and we have attempted to correct for the expected dilution of NH4+ in our
tidepool rate calculations.

Because isotope enrichment levels were relatively low, we used the
conventional delta notation instead of atom% to describe variations in 15N
enrichment (where delta-15NH4+ = {(15N:14N sample \u00f7 15N:14N standard)
-1}\u00d71000\u2030, where the standard is atmospheric N2. \u00a0Tracer
labeled ammonium chloride (15NH4Cl) was added to the pools to approximate a
1000\u2030 enrichment in 2010 (doubling the 15N-NH4+ concentration) and a
2000\u2030 enrichment in 2011(tripling the 15N-NH4+ concentration). 15N
natural abundance is only 0.365% and these tracer additions thus had a
negligible effect on the overall NH4+ concentrations increasing them by only
~0.4% and ~0.8%, respectively. Tidepool volumes were estimated
spectrophotometrically using varying concentrations of food dye (Pfister
1995). Together with estimates of NH4+ concentration (from 2009 data), we
estimated the tracer addition required to achieve the targeted 15N
enrichments. However, the actual initial enrichments varied substantially,
684.4 - 2406.4\u2030 in 2010 and 781.4 - 3880.2\u2030 in 2011, likely due to
error in tidepool volume estimation and natural variations in initial NH4+
concentrations. Fortunately, we sampled immediately following each tracer
addition allowing for the determination of the true initial 15N enrichment.
\u00a0

Prior to tracer addition at ebb tide, 100 mL of tidepool water was syringe-
filtered (Whatman GF/F) into separate HDPE bottles for natural abundance
15NH4+ and concentration determination. \u00a0To each pool, tracer 15NH4+ was
then added and distributed by stirring with a stick. Water samples were
immediately collected for measuring initial 15N enrichment and subsequently at
2, 4, and 6 hour intervals to determine isotope and concentration time
courses. All water samples were frozen until analysis. Tidepool oxygen, pH,
and temperature (Hach HQ4D) were also collected at ~ 2 h intervals throughout
the experiment.

In 2011 we also assessed the contribution of the suspended microbial community
to NH4+ cycling by enclosing tidepool water in a 250 mL transparent
polycarbonate incubation bottle. Following tracer addition, the bottle was
filled, then left to float in the tidepool for the duration of the experiment.
Samples from bottles were filtered as described both immediately after
containment and at the end of the experiment (~6 h later).

We assessed macroalgal contribution to NH4+ removal by transplanting two
tidepool-dwelling algae species. \u00a0Prionitis sternbergii were sampled 2
weeks prior to the experiment for baseline natural abundance 15N values and
transplanted into the pools with Z-Spar Epoxy (Pfister 2007). On the day of
the experiment, the red-alga, Corallina vancouveriensis from a single source
patch, was also sampled for 15N natural abundance, inserted into pieces of
Styrofoam, and floated in each pool.

At the end of each experiment (~6 h sampling point), we sampled tidepool
particulate organic material (POM) by filtering through combusted GF/F filters
until they clogged (~ 600 mL), comparing these samples with POM similarly
sampled from the immediate nearshore. \u00a0Floating Corallina spp. samples
were collected into clean Eppendorf tubes, and similar sized pieces of
Prionitis spp. were collected from each pool into clean foil packets.\u00a0
We evaluated the extent of longer-term 15N tracer retention in 2011 by
sampling tidepool water, POM and transplanted Prionitis 1, 3, and 6 days
following tracer addition. We sampled at ebb tide and at again at slack water
just prior to high tide on the first day after tracer addition (that is, 24 h
later) and at slack water prior to high tide on Day 3 and 6.\u00a0
