报告摘要:
伴随着全球气候的变化，海洋生态系统也正在发生变化，一些变化可能在未来的几年或数十年内对我们产生影响。预测它们未来的发展是一项迫切的目标。海洋微型生物在构建海洋生态系统、以及海洋对全球变化做出的响应中起着重要作用。它们通过和各种有机质及生物体相互作用来调节生态系统、影响全球气候。保护海洋、发展海洋经济需要以生态系统管理为基础。微型生物在微尺度的变化，通过积聚就会在全球海洋尺度上反映出来。在微观尺度上了解海洋微型生物的生物地球化学循环机制是一项令人兴奋的新挑战，通过它可以获得全新的知识和对海洋生态系统机能的理解。
Abstract:
The ocean ecosystems are changing—interactively with global climate change—and some changes may affect us in timeframes as short as years to decades. Predicting the shape of things to come is an urgent goal. Marine microbes play central roles in the structuring ocean’s ecosystems—and in the response of the ocean to global change. They pervasively interact with all organic phases and organisms to regulate ecosystems and influence global climate. Marine conservation, fisheries management and mariculture require ecosystem-based management. Such models have limited utility if they do not integrating the in situ functions of the highly diverse communities of marine microbes. Microbes cause change at the microscale---yet their cumulative effect is dramatically reflected at the global ocean scale. Understanding the ocean’s biogeochemical dynamics at the micrometer-scale is an exciting new challenge that promises fundamentally new knowledge and insights on the functioning of the ocean ecosystems. It is also becoming clear that ocean health and human health are intertwined. The ocean acts as “vector” for some human pathogens (e.g.Vibrio cholerae) and the changing ocean may offer new habitats for the proliferation and emergence of human pathogens. Further, global warming and sea-level rise may increase human exposure to such pathogens. There is urgent need to gain a fundamental and comprehensive understanding of how the ocean ecosystems “work” and to predict the biogeochemical state of the future ocean.
