摘要

Abstract

Several studies have suggested the pivotal roles of eutrophic lakes in carbon (C) cycling at regional and global scales. However

how the co-metabolism effect on lake sediment organic carbon (OC) mineralization changes in response to integrated inputs of labile OC and nutrients is poorly understood. This knowledge gap hinders our ability to predict the carbon sequestration potential in eutrophic lakes. Therefore

a 45-day microcosm experiment was conducted to examine the dominant mechanisms that underpin the co-metabolism response to the inputs of labile C and nutrients in lacustrine sediments. Results indicate that the labile C addition caused a rapid increase in the positive co-metabolism effect during the initial stage of incubation

and the co-metabolism effect was positively correlated with the C input level. The positive co-metabolism effect was consistently higher under high C input

which was 152% higher than that under low C input. The higher β-glucosidase activity after nutrient addition

which

in turn

promoted the OC mineralization in sediments. In addition

different impacts of nutrients on the co-metabolism effect under different C inputs were observed. Compared with the low nutrient treatments

the largest co-metabolism effect under high C with high nutrient treatment was observed by the end of the incubation. In the high C treatment

the intensity of the co-metabolism effect (CE) under high nitrogen treatment was 1.88 times higher than that under low nitrogen condition. However

in the low C treatment

the amount of nitrogen had limited impact on co-metabolism effect. Our study thus proved that the microorganisms obviously regulate sediment OC turnover via stoichiometric flexibility to maintain a balance between resources and microbial requirements

which is meaningful for evaluating the OC budget and lake eutrophication management in lacustrine sediments.
