3 Outline 1. Intro & background to research 2. Identification of 2 main parts of research and corresponding key questions 3. Part I: Trends in epilimnion thickness, and identification of factors that control these trends 4. Part II: Biological implications of these trends, for phytoplankton specifically 5. Conclusions & broader significance
4 Jordan Pond, Acadia National Park
5 Recent trends in clarity Strock et al. 2013
6 Drivers of Lake Clarity Chlorophyll (algae) Dissolved organic carbon (DOC/DOM)
7 Drivers of Lake Clarity in Acadia Strock et al. 2013
8 Drivers of increased DOC concentration Patterns of Wet Sulfate Deposition
9 Drivers of increased DOC concentration Precipitation Patterns number of events with >2 rain in 24 hours Rainfall DOC Fernandez et al. 2015
10 Epilimnion Thickness DOC light epilimnion thickness epilimnion thickness..other factors that drive ET..
11 3 main questions Part I (1) What are the trends in epilimnion thickness in Jordan Pond and other Acadia Lakes? (2) What controls these changes? Part II (3) What do these changes mean for phytoplankton in Acadia lakes?
12 Part I: Study Sites
13 Question 1: Trends of Epilimnion Thickness Approach: Historical Data Strock et al in review
14 Question 2: Controls on epilimnion thickness Approach: Modern High-Frequency Data
15 Question 2: Controls on epilimnion thickness Approach: Modern High-Frequency Data What the buoy measures Water temperature ph Conductivity fdom (organic matter) Dissolved oxygen Chlorophyll Light attenuation Water temperature profile (to 16 m depth) What the weather station measures Air temperature Wind speed, direction Rain fall Barometric pressure Light conditions
16 Question 2: Controls on epilimnion thickness Approach: Modern High-Frequency Data fdom explained the most variability in epilimnion thickness (R 2 =0.759, p<0.001) Strock et al in review
17 Question 2: Controls on epilimnion thickness Approach: Modern High-Frequency Data Proximate cause of seasonal change DOC Epilimnion thickness Rainfall Buoy captures increased magnitude of rain events
18 Conclusions Pt. I DOC controls epilimnion thickness across short and long temporal scales
19 Question 3: What do changes in epilimnion thickness mean for phytoplankton in Acadia lakes? Background DOC important ecosystem regulator, less known about the implications for ecosystems Numerous effects of DOC on phytoplankton (nutrient subsidy, trophic changes, light changes) Experiment focuses on the effect of changes in light phyto will experience in altered epilimnion thickness
20 Part II: Study Sites Lake Area (ha) Max Depth (m) DOC (mg L -1 ) Secchi Epilimnion Thickness Jordan Seal Cove
21 Question 3: What do changes in epilimnion thickness mean for phytoplankton in Acadia lakes? Approach: Experimental Manipulation Jordan Pond Seal Cove Light Manipulation Simulated Epi Depth (m) Simulated Epi Depth (m) Thinner Epilimnion 4 3 Average Epilimnion 7 6 Thicker epilimnion 10 9 Response variables Predictions
22 Question 3: What do changes in epilimnion thickness mean for phytoplankton in Acadia lakes? Approach: Experimental Manipulation
23 Chlorophyll (µg/l) Total Biovolume (µm 3 / ml) Question 3: What do changes in epilimnion thickness mean for phytoplankton in Acadia lakes? Approach: Experimental Manipulation Jordan Pond Algal Biomass Algal Biovolume Thick epi Low light Med light High light Thin epi Low light Med light High light
24 Chlorophyll (µg/l) Total Biovolume / ml Question 3: What do changes in epilimnion thickness mean for phytoplankton in Acadia lakes? Approach: Experimental Manipulation Seal Cove Algal Biomass Algal Biovolume Thick epi Low light Med light High light Thin epi Low light Med light High light
25 Conclusions Pt. II Biological implications of changing trends in DOC relatively understudied Altered chlorophyll production in low light conditions, in high DOC system
26 Conclusions & Broader Implications Lakes are declining in clarity and epi thickness DOC playing key role Looking at data across temporal scales is key Key to focus on biological implications of changes in DOC Revisiting lakes as sentinels
