本研究は、テネリフェ島沖の貧栄養海域に設置された海底モニタリングステーションが提供する生態系サービスを評価した。18ヶ月の調査で、底生バイオマス1.02–2.88 g/m²、炭素隔離0.24–0.40 g/m²を計測し、46種の生物を確認した。貧栄養環境でもブルーカーボン生成と生態系サービスの可能性を示し、海草藻場など主要生態系より低いが、地中海性の底生生態系と類似した値を示した。

This study evaluated ecosystem services from a submarine monitoring station in oligotrophic waters off Tenerife over 18 months. It measured benthic biomass of 1.02–2.88 g/m² and carbon sequestration of 0.24–0.40 g/m², and identified 46 species. The results show that even nutrient-poor environments can support blue carbon development and ecosystem services, though at lower levels than major blue carbon ecosystems.

In the global GX context
This paper assesses blue carbon generation and ecosystem services from an artificial submarine installation in oligotrophic waters off Tenerife. It demonstrates that even nutrient-poor environments can support measurable carbon sequestration and biodiversity, contributing to the global understanding of blue carbon potential beyond traditional ecosystems like mangroves and seagrasses.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Abstract. This study assessed the unplanned ecosystem services provided by a submarine monitoring station over 18 months, including an environmental characterisation of a shallow coastal shelf area off SW Tenerife (Canary Islands), a calculation of the benthic biomass developed (the generated blue carbon) and the identification of the species pool related to the installation, representing the associated biodiversity. The oligotrophic coastal waters at the studied site permitted a benthic biomass generation between 1.02 g m-2 and 2.88 g m-2, and a carbon sequestration between 0.24 g m-2 and 0.40 g m-2. Furthermore, 46 species belonging to 11 phyla were identified during 4 periodical monitoring dives. The ecosystem services provided by the monitoring station included primary production, carbon sequestration, fish nursery and shelter (regulating ecosystem service). The installation also benefited the biodiversity maintenance (supporting ecosystem service). The environmental conditions (physical, chemical and biological) at the studied site were not a limiting factor for benthic biomass development. The amount of blue carbon generated was lower compared to the main blue carbon ecosystems (e.g., seagrass meadows, mangroves and salt marshes) and high-latitude (polar) ecosystems, but similar to Mediterranean gorgonian-based ecosystems. The present study demonstrates that the present oligotrophic study site is a good candidate for benthic ecosystem restoration due to its facility for blue carbon development and provision of ecosystem services.
