Bacterial Metabolic Response to Change in Phytoplankton Communities and Resultant Effects on Carbon Cycles in the Amundsen Sea Polynya, Antarctica
We investigated changes in heterotrophic bacterial metabolic activities and associated carbon cycles in response to a change in dominant phytoplankton communities during two contrasting environmental conditions in austral summer in the Amundsen Sea polynya (ASP), Antarctica: the closed polynya condi...

We investigated changes in heterotrophic bacterial metabolic activities and associated carbon cycles in response to a change in dominant phytoplankton communities during two contrasting environmental conditions in austral summer in the Amundsen Sea polynya (ASP), Antarctica: the closed polynya condition in 2014 (ANA04) and the open polynya condition in 2016 (ANA06). In ANA04, Phaeocystis antarctica predominated phytoplankton biomass, comprising 78% of total phytoplankton carbon biomass, whereas diatoms and Dictyocha speculum accounted for 45% and 48% of total phytoplankton carbon biomass, respectively, in ANA06. Bacterial production (BP) showed a significant positive correlation with only chlorophyll-a (Chl-a, rho = 0.66, p < 0.001) in P. antarctica -dominated ANA04, whereas there were significant positive relationships of BP with various organic carbon pools, such as chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM, rho = 0.84, p < 0.001), Chl-a (rho = 0.59, p < 0.001), and dissolved organic carbon (DOC, rho = 0.51, p = 0.001), in ANA06 when diatoms and D. speculum co-dominated.
