YANG Jing,LI Xin,XIE Shulian,et al.Hydrochemical characteristics and the ecological effect of algal carbonic anhydrase in carbon cycle in the Taiyuan section of Fenhe River[J].Journal of Oceanology and Limnology,2024,42(05):1507-1524. DOI: 10.1007.s00343-024-3089-x.
Water scarcity and pollution pose a threat to the sustainable development of cities and society. Therefore
it is crucial to analyze the hy
drochemical characteristics and carbon dynamics of water-deficient areas. Taking the Taiyuan section of Fenhe River as the research object
we systematically explored the hydrochemical characteristics of surface water and its evolutionary processes
as well as the ecological effect of algal carbonic anhydrase in carbon cycle using the hydrochemical evolution method and correlation analysis. The ternary diagram demonstrates that the main water chemical type in Fenhe River was SO
2-
4
·Cl
-
-Na
+
. The Gibbs and end-member diagrams of each ion display that the chemical composition of surface water was mainly controlled by silicate decomposition. The chemical ions originated mainly from dissolution of some minerals
such as plagioclase
halite
dolomite
calcite
and gypsum. The diatoms had a lower CO
2
requirement because they exhibited a higher abundance at a lower partial pressure of CO
2
(
p
CO
2
). However
high CO
2
concentration had a positive effect on cyanobacteria
which reduced the active transport of HCO
3
-
saved the energy needed for this part of active transport
and indirectly improved the overall photosynthetic efficiency of algae. Carbonic anhydrase (CA) activity was significantly negatively correlated with
p
CO
2
and positively correlated with HCO
3
-
concentration
indicating that CA in water promoted the conversion of CO
2
to HCO
3
-
. The HCO
3
-
generated from this process continued to participate in the erosion of silicate rocks
sequestering CO
2
in the form of CaCO
3
which has a non-negligible impact on the carbon sink in the Fenhe River. These consequences may have important implications for the biogeochemical cycling occurring in urban water.
