Under saturating light conditions, microprofiles measured towards the shell surface showed an O<sub>2</sub> increase of up to 220% air saturation, a decrease in CO<sub>2</sub> concentration to 4.9 µM, and a pH increase to 8.8 due to symbiont photosynthesis. The Ca<sup>2+</sup> concentration decreased to ~9.6 mM in two specimens, while it increased to 10.2-10.8 mM in three other specimens kept in light. In darkness, the respiration of the community decreased the O<sub>2</sub> concentration to 82% of air saturation, CO<sub>2</sub> increased up to 15 µM, the pH decreased to 8.0, and the Ca<sub>2</sub> concentration increased up to 10.4 mM. These data, and derived calculations of the distribution of HCO<sub>3</sub><sup>-</sup> and CO<sub>3</sub><sup>2-</sup> near the shell, showed that the carbonate system in the vicinity of <i>O. universa</i> was significantly different from conditions in the surrounding seawater, both in light and darkness, due to the metabolism of the foraminifer and its associated algae. Experimental light-dark cycles indicated a sufficient Co<sub>2</sub> supply sustaining high carbon fixation rates of the symbiotic algae via conversion of HCO<sub>3</sub><sup>-</sup> or via CO<sub>2</sub> release from calcification and host respiration. Our findings on irradiance-dependent CO<sub>2</sub> and pH changes in the vicinity of symbiont-bearing planktonic foraminifera give direct experimental evidence for the predictions of isotope fractionation models used in palaeoclimatology stating that metabolic processes affect the isotopic carbon signal (delta<sup>13</sup>C) in foraminifera.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"The chemical microenvironment of the symbiotic planktonic foraminifer <i>Orbulina universa</i>","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-04-22 01:31:32.055172","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2005,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2005-05-23","DateCreate":"2005-05-19","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000230394000007","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":1,"DOI":"10.1080/17451000510019015"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":72892,"PubliDate":2005,"Pagination":"68-78","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"1","Issue":"1","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":72882,"SerRR":"Marine Biology Research.
