Barbieri Virginia E. Villafañe E. Walter Helbling Ciencias de la Tierra ogii mixing oxygen rates Dunaliella salina Heterocapsa triquetra Oxygen production / consumption dynamics in three phytoplankton species (20-25 µm in effective dia-meter), Dunaliella salina (Chlorophyceae), Thalassiosira weiss&#64258;ogii (Bacillariophyceae) and Heterocapsa triquetra (Dinophyceae), was experimentally determined when cells circulated within a simulated upper mixed layer (UML). Samples were exposed to three radiation treatments receiving: a) full solar radiation (PAB, 280-700 nm), b) PAR+UV-A (PA, 320-700 nm), and c) only PAR (P, 400-700 nm). Two pathways were simulated (as if the cells started to circulate from the surface or from the bottom of the UML): 1) downward circulation (i.e., from 100% to 9% irradiance and back to 100%), and 2) upward circulation (i.e., from 9% to 100% irradiance and back to 9%). There were no signi&#64257;cant dif-ferences among radiation treatments (p < 0.05) and photosynthetic inhibition was only due to PAR. We found important inter-speci&#64257;c differences in O2 rates when cells circulated within the simulated UML, D. salina was affected by both high and low irradiances whereas T. weiss&#64258;ogii was only inhibited by high irradiances. On the other hand, H. triquetra showed the least variability and it bene&#64257;ted by &#64258;uctuating radiation regimes. We also determined differences in the depth integrated O2 production when species performed a complete rotation within the simulated UML, with the highest values in H. triquetra and the lowest in D. salina. Our &#64257;ndings suggest that the different pathways of the cells circulating in the water column should be considered at the time to assess primary productivity in areas exposed to changing meteorologi-cal conditions throughout the year, and hence with variable UMLs. 2006 artículo científico 0716-1069 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=45634210 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=456 Investigaciones Marinas application/pdf Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso Investigaciones Marinas (Chile) Num.2 Vol.34
