attribute NC_GLOBAL acquisition_description String 15N labeled phytoplankton was continuously pumped for three days into 30.5 cm\ndiameter mesocosms\\u00a0 containing\\u00a0 10 cm of sediment and 20 liters of\noverlying water. \\u00a0 Three mesocosms contained twelve 7-cm long oysters\n(O1, O2, O2) and three mesocosms had no oysters and served as controls\n(C1,C2,C3). Mesoscosms were flow through with a 0.3 day residence time and\nopen to the atmosphere. After phytoplankton feeding period, oysters were\nremoved and mesocosms allowed to flush for 3 days.\\u00a0 Tank feed water was\nthen stopped and mesocosms sealed. Time series N2O,\\u00a015N2\\u00a0, and\nsediment\\u00a015N were measured during the period when the mesocom was sealed\nuntil the dissolved oxygen reached 2 mgL-1.\\u00a0 Then the mesocosms were\nreopened and the feed water restarted. This first incubation ID is CS1.\\u00a0\nThe mesocosms functioned in flow through mode for several days (rest period)\nand then the incubation / measurement procedure was repeated.\\u00a0 This\nsecond incubation period ID is CS2.\\u00a0 After CS2, the mesocosms were\nreopened and put into flow through.\\u00a0 In total there were 5 closed system\nincubation periods.\\u00a0 The following \\u2018rest periods\\u2019 (hours) were\nestablished between CS1-2, 2-3, 3-4, 4-5: 49 hours, 90 hours, 110.5 hours,\n138.5 hours.\n \nWater samples for N2O analysis were collected with a peristaltic pump through\na syringe needle directly into 12 ml exetainer that had been flushed with N2\nand preserved with KOH to a pH above 12. Approximately six ml sample was\ncollected. N2O concentrations in the headspace were measured on a GC-\nECD.\\u00a0 Water samples for 15N2 samples were collected with a peristaltic\npump through a syringe needle directly into 30 ml serum bottles that had been\nflushed with He and preserved with KOH to a pH above 12. \\u00a0 Approximately\neight ml sample was collected. 15N2 was analyzed by GC - Isotope Ratio Mass\nSpectrometry (IRMS). Sediment 15N samples were collected from the mesocoms\nusing a 2cm diameter core.\\u00a0 The top 3 cm was retained for analysis.

attribute NC_GLOBAL project String Oyster Reef N2O Emission
attribute NC_GLOBAL projects_0_acronym String Oyster Reef N2O Emission
attribute NC_GLOBAL projects_0_description String Extracted from the NSF award abstract:\nOyster reefs are biogeochemical hot spots and prominent estuarine habitats that provide disproportionate ecological function. Suspension-feeding eastern oysters, Crassostrea virginica, are capable of improving water quality and diminishing eutrophication by filtering nutrients and particles from the water and depositing them in the sediments. Remineralization of these deposits may enhance sedimentary denitrification that facilitates nitrogen removal in tidal estuaries. However, the scientific underpinning of oyster reef function has been challenged in various studies. In addition, recent studies of filter feeding invertebrates reported the production of nitrous oxide (N2O), a greenhouse gas, as an end product of incomplete denitrification by gut microbes. C. virginica could be another source of N2O flux from intertidal habitats. Preliminary work indicated substantial N2O production from individual oysters. The estimated N2O production from high density oyster reefs may exceed the N2O flux measured from some estuaries. With the new discovery of N2O emission and uncertainty regarding eutrophication control, the ecological value of oyster reef restoration may become equivocal.\nThis project will quantify N2O fluxes to understand the factors controlling N2O emission from oyster reefs. Sedimentary N processes will be examined to develop an oyster reef N model to estimate N2O emission from tidal creek estuaries relative to other N cycling processes. The PIs hypothesize that intertidal oyster reefs are a substantial source of N2O emission from estuarine ecosystems and the magnitude of emission may be linked to water quality. If substantial N2O flux from oyster reefs is validated, ecological benefits of oyster reef restoration should be reevaluated. This interdisciplinary research team includes a microbial ecologist, a biogeochemist, an ecologist and an ecosystem modeler. They will utilize stable isotope and molecular microbiological techniques to quantify oyster N2O production, elucidate microbial sources of N2O emission from oysters and sediments, and estimate seasonal variation of N2O fluxes from oyster reefs. Measurements from this study will be integrated into a coupled oyster bioenergetics-sediment biogeochemistry model to compare system level rates of N cycling on oyster reefs as a function of oyster density and water quality. Modeling results will be used to assess the relative trade-­offs of oyster restoration associated with N cycling. They expect to deliver the following end products:1) estimation of annual N2O flux from oyster reefs as an additional source of greenhouse gases from estuaries, 2) a better understanding of the environmental and microbial factors influencing N2O and N2 fluxes in tidal estuaries, 3) transformative knowledge for the effect of oyster restoration on water quality enhancement and ecosystem function, 4) direct guidance for oyster restoration projects whose goals include water quality enhancement, and 5) a modeling tool for use in research and restoration planning.
