Transfer of bacterial carbon to the benthic fauna - INVERSE
title in nl
Transfer van bacterieel koolstof naar benthische fauna - INVERSE
Description in English
This experiment was set up to unravel the importance of bacterial carbon for the benthic food web. For this purpose, sediment samples were taken during and after the injection of 13C-glucose to measure the building-in of 13C in bacterial lipids and in benthic organisms. The amount of respired carbon (13C-DIC) was also measured. This database contains all collected data.
Description in nl
Daartoe zijn tijdens en na de injectie van 13C-glucose, sediment monsters genomen om de inbouw van 13C in bacteriele lipiden en in benthische organismen te meten. Tevens is de hoeveelheid gerespireerde koolstof (13C-DIC) gemeten. Deze dataset bevat al deze verzamelde data.
Abstract in English
From May - October 2002, NIOO-CEME conducted an experiment in which during 4 days 13C labelled glucose was injected in the top 10 cm of the sediment of the intertidal Molenplaat in the Western Scheldt, The Netherlands.
Abstract in nl
In de periode mei 2002 - oktober 2002 is door het NIOO-CEME een experiment gedaan waarin gedurend 4 dagen 13C gelabeld glucose is geinjecteerd in top 10 cm van het sediment van de intergetijdeplaat Molenplaat in de Westerschelde. Dit experiment was opgezet om het belang van bacterieel koolstof voor het bentische voedselweb te ontrafelen.
