TALK
Climate change biology and its approaches to understand phytoplankton responses in the warming ocean
气候变化生物学及其在理解变暖海洋中浮游植物响应方面的研究方法
Brisneve Edullantes, PhD, Department of Biology and Environmental Science, College of Science, University of the Philippines Cebu
Phytoplankton are microscopic photosynthetic organisms that form the base of marine ecosystems, drive global primary production and affect biogeochemical cycles. Ocean warming as a result of climate change creates major threats to phytoplankton diversity together with their distribution patterns and ecological roles. The presentation examines how Climate Change Biology as an interdisciplinary field enables us to understand phytoplankton responses to these changes. The biological responses to climate change include range shifts, phenotypic plasticity, community restructuring, and local extirpation or extinction in some cases. Ocean acidification together with marine heatwaves create additional changes in phytoplankton dynamics which sometimes produce harmful algal blooms that lead to severe ecological and socio-economic consequences. Multiple methods including long-term observations and controlled laboratory and mesocosm experiments together with satellite remote sensing and ecological modeling and meta-analyses are used to evaluate these responses. The presentation demonstrates why integrated adaptive research methods are essential for predicting phytoplankton responses to future climate conditions because this knowledge enables effective management of marine ecosystems and preservation of ocean ecosystem services.
浮游植物作为海洋生态系统的基石，不仅是全球初级生产力的主要驱动者，更深刻影响着生物地球化学循环。随着气候变化导致海洋持续变暖，浮游植物的多样性分布格局与生态功能正面临严峻挑战。本报告将阐释气候变化生物学这一交叉学科如何帮助我们理解浮游植物对环境变化的响应机制，包括分布区迁移、表型可塑性、群落重组乃至局部灭绝等现象。海洋酸化和海洋热浪的叠加效应将进一步改变浮游植物动态，有时甚至引发有害藻华，造成严重的生态与社会经济后果。通过整合长期观测、实验室控制实验、中宇宙实验、卫星遥感、生态模型和元分析等多重方法，研究者得以系统评估这些响应过程。报告将重点论证为何需要发展综合性适应研究方法，以准确预测未来气候情境下浮游植物的响应规律——这对实现海洋生态系统有效管理和维持海洋生态服务功能具有关键意义。
