attribute	NC_GLOBAL	acquisition_description	String	Measurements of photosynthesis and respiration of Ulva lactuca occurred at the end of 3 weeks of acclimation to various levels of ocean acidification at 15\u00b0C. Small circular sections of U. lactuca thalli used for measurements were sampled with a cork borer the evening before measurement and returned to culture conditions overnight to allow for wound healing. Plant sections used to estimate rates of photosynthesis and respiration from oxygen exchange measurements were placed in small white, mesh threaded bags designed to fit the diameter of the cuvette chamber so that the plant material was oriented perpendicularly to the light source provided in the Qubit Systems Dissolved Oxygen package. Prior to introducing plants to the cuvette chamber, oxygen exchange between the stirred seawater and electrode system (i.e., oxygen consumption by the electrode) was monitored to adjust for its effect on subsequent measurements in the presence of plant material. Sections were transferred to the cuvette containing a magnetic stirring bar and 3 ml of seawater corresponding to the average pCO2 level in their particular culture pot and placed in darkness for 10-15 minutes prior to beginning measurement. Once measurements began, output of oxygen exchange was monitored until a steady state of oxygen exchange was attained (typically within 10 minutes) in either darkness or light. Photosynthesis and respiration were measured at 15\u00b0C and ~550, and 0, \u00b5mole photons m-2 s-1, respectively; the same temperature and light conditions as in growth culture. Respiration was measured both following a \u226510 minute acclimation period in darkness prior to light exposure (dark respiration) and again in darkness immediately following exposure to the saturating light intensity (as an estimate of respiration that occurs in the light). Following these measurements in seawater at their culture pCO2 level, the seawater in the cuvette was replaced with standard air-saturated seawater at 15\u00b0C and the measurement process described above was repeated for measurements of respiration in the dark and \u2018light\u2019 and photosynthesis. After measurements of gas exchange, the mass of plant tissue was measured on an analytical balance. Note: Trial 1 was a pilot test of culture system and methodological procedures so was not used for data collection.

attribute	NC_GLOBAL	projects_0_description	String	Benthic macroalgae contribute to intensely productive near shore ecosystems and little is known about the potential effects of ocean acidification on non-calcifying macroalgae. Kübler and Dudgeon will test hypotheses about two macroalgae, Ulva spp. and Plocamium cartilagineum, which, for different reasons, are hypothesized to be more productive and undergo ecological expansions under predicted changes in ocean chemistry. They have designed laboratory culture-based experiments to quantify the scope for response to ocean acidification in Plocamium, which relies solely on diffusive uptake of CO2, and populations of Ulva spp., which have an inducible concentrating mechanism (CCM). The investigators will culture these algae in media equilibrated at 8 different pCO2 levels ranging from 380 to 940 ppm to address three key hypotheses. The first is that macroalgae (such as Plocamium cartilagineum) that are not able to acquire inorganic carbon in changed form will benefit, in terms of photosynthetic and growth rates, from ocean acidification. There is little existing data to support this common assumption. The second hypothesis is that enhanced growth of Ulva sp. under OA will result from the energetic savings from down regulating the CCM, rather than from enhanced photosynthesis per se. Their approach will detect existing genetic variation for adaptive plasticity. The third key hypothesis to be addressed in short-term culture experiments is that there will be a significant interaction between ocean acidification and nitrogen limited growth of Ulva spp., which are indicator species of eutrophication. Kübler and Dudgeon will be able to quantify the individual effects of ocean acidification and nitrogenous nutrient addition on Ulva spp. and also, the synergistic effects, which will inevitably apply in many highly productive, shallow coastal areas. The three hypotheses being addressed have been broadly identified as urgent needs in our growing understanding of the impacts of ocean acidification.
