  1. Coastal margin science: MicrobiologyMicrobial Diversity and Microbial-mediated Activities Peter Zuber 1

  2. Coastal margin science: Microbiology • Identify areas of microbial ‘productivity’ related to prevalent events or gradients in PNW coastal margin • Developing new technologies to regularly and accurately monitor microbial-mediated activities Biological mediation Microorganisms Physical circulation and transport Chemical stressors Human activity & climate nationalgeographic.com Ecosystem & human health

  3. Events & high gradient regions Estuarine Turbidity Maximum Enhanced microbial productivity Sea surface temperature Image from PISCO (OSU) CORIE forecast - Coastal hypoxia - Upwelling/downwelling regimes - Climate variability - Estuary/plume fronts - River-to-ocean salinity gradients - Estuarine turbidity maxima - Steep vertical gradients in physical, biological & chemical properties Fish mortality in July 2002 Grantham et al. 2004 Nature NOAA web site

  4. River, estuary, plume & ocean Estuary & plume Dynamic environment Low phytoplankton cell counts in the Columbia river estuary Forecast of bottom water salinity Columbia river ? Salinity (PSU) Frey et al 1984 Forecast of surface water salinity Particulate Organic Carbon Inputs Detrital particulate organic carbon 146,000 Mt/y Estuary Primary production 17,000 Mt/y River phytoplankton 61,000 Mt/y Small et al, 1990 Salinity (PSU)

  5. Water sampling: microbiology team • CTD, O2, Nitrate, Chl. Fluo., Trans. • DNA/RNA analysis • Dissolved nutrients (N, P, silicate) • Particulate organic carbon and nitrogen • Dissolved organic carbon • Dissolved organic nitrogen • Suspended particulate matter • Chlorophyll a and other pigments • Flow cytometry analysis • Cell counts (FISH, lugol…) • Bacterial production rates • Primary production rates Dan Murphy

  6. CMOP and CRETM/LMER sampling We collected nearly 250 water samples during four research cruises in 2007. These samples cover a broad range of salinity in the estuary, and expand the dataset collected by the CRETM LMER program in the 90s to the coastal ocean

  24. Conclusions, Questions Plume is an area of high primary productivity, bacterial productivity Productivity of the plume fueled by nutrients delivered through tidal events Estuary is an area of heterotrophic microbial activity and unique primary production mediated by ciliates that appropriate photosynthetic machinery (Katablepharids, Myrionecta) Myrionecta may serve as an indicator of estuary ecosystem state as its growth correlates with low river flow and elevated temperature
