Moreover, they dispense a large fraction of new nitrogen to the ecosystem when inorganic nitrogen concentration in summer is low. Thus, it is of ecological importance to know how Nodularia will react to future environmental changes, in particular to increasing carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations and what consequences there might arise for cycling of organic matter in the Baltic Sea. Here, we determined carbon (C) and dinitrogen (N-2) fixation rates, growth, elemental stoichiometry of particulate organic matter and nitrogen turnover in batch cultures of the heterocystous cyanobacterium Nodularia spumigena under low (median 315 mu atm), mid (median 353 mu atm), and high (median 548 mu atm) CO2 concentrations. Our results demonstrate an overall stimulating effect of rising pCO(2) on C and N-2 fixation, as well as on cell growth. An increase in pCO(2) during incubation days 0 to 9 resulted in an elevation in growth rate by 84 +/- 38\% (low vs. high pCO(2)) and 40 +/- 25\% (mid vs. high pCO(2)), as well as in N-2 fixation by 93 +/- 35\% and 38 +/- 1\%, respectively. C uptake rates showed high standard deviations within treatments and in between sampling days. Nevertheless, C fixation in the high pCO(2) treatment was elevated compared to the other two treatments by 97\% (high vs. low) and 44\% (high vs. mid) at day 0 and day 3, but this effect diminished afterwards. Additionally, elevation in carbon to nitrogen and nitrogen to phosphorus ratios of the particulate biomass formed (POC : POP and PON : POP) was observed at high pCO(2). Our findings suggest that rising pCO(2) stimulates the growth of heterocystous diazotrophic cyanobacteria, in a similar way as reported for the non-heterocystous diazotroph Trichodesmium. Implications for biogeochemical cycling and food web dynamics, as well as ecological and socio-economical aspects in the Baltic Sea are discussed.}, language = {en} } @unpublished{WalzAdrianGilbertetal.2011, author = {Walz, Norbert and Adrian, Rita and Gilbert, John J. and Monaghan, Michael T. and Weithoff, Guntram and Zimmermann-Timm, Heike}, title = {Preface}, series = {Hydrobiologia : acta hydrobiologica, hydrographica, limnologica et protistologica}, volume = {662}, journal = {Hydrobiologia : acta hydrobiologica, hydrographica, limnologica et protistologica}, number = {1}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Dordrecht}, issn = {0018-8158}, doi = {10.1007/s10750-010-0514-2}, pages = {1 -- 4}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @unpublished{LoBruttoArculeoKrappSchickeletal.2013, author = {Lo Brutto, Sabrina and Arculeo, Marco and Krapp-Schickel, Traudl and Ketmaier, Valerio}, title = {Foreword to the special issue "New frontiers for monitoring european biodiversity - the role and importance of amphipod crustaceans"}, series = {Crustaceana : international journal of crustacean research}, volume = {86}, journal = {Crustaceana : international journal of crustacean research}, number = {7-8}, publisher = {Brill}, address = {Leiden}, issn = {0011-216X}, doi = {10.1163/15685403-00003204}, pages = {769 -- 779}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @unpublished{Lenhard2012, author = {Lenhard, Michael}, title = {All's well that ends well arresting cell proliferation in leaves}, series = {Developmental cell}, volume = {22}, journal = {Developmental cell}, number = {1}, publisher = {Cell Press}, address = {Cambridge}, issn = {1534-5807}, doi = {10.1016/j.devcel.2011.12.004}, pages = {9 -- 11}, year = {2012}, abstract = {The transition from cell proliferation to cell expansion is critical for determining leaf size.
