“…Muskegon Lake is a 16.91 km 2 inland water body located in the Laurentian Great Lakes region (86°18' W, 43°14'N) (Parsons et al, 2004). Its mean depth is 7 m with a maximum depth of 23 m. Muskegon Lake itself is the end point of a drowned river mouth system that connects the Muskegon River Watershed to the coastal zone of Lake Michigan through a navigation channel (Steinman et al, 2008). This proximity to the Great Lakes and general ecological setting make it an important fishery, though invasive species, habitat loss and degradation continue to be factors of concern (Lake Michigan Lakewide Management Plan, 2004).…”

“…Although water quality has improved (Steinman et al 2008), changes in inorganic nutrient or organic carbon inputs from the surrounding watershed or resuspension of contaminated sediments is likely to continue to affect lake metabolism rates. Three sampling sites were chosen based upon long-term monitoring studies (Steinman et al 2008;our …”

“…Most of the watershed that feeds Muskegon Lake is forested (53.2%), with the remainder being agricultural (23%) and urbanized (4.2%) (Marko et al 2013). Muskegon Lake has a water volume of ~119 million m 3 , a water retention time of ~23 d, and a mean water depth of 7 m (Carter et al 2006, Steinman et al 2008.…”

The long-term ramifications of industry and urban development in and around Muskegon Lake remain to be determined (Steinman et al 2008). …”

“…Lake sampling and sample processing 100 Surface water samples were collected at 1 meter depth from 4 long-term sampling stations 101 (Steinman et al, 2008) in mesotrophic Muskegon Lake (Figure S1), which is a freshwater 102 estuarine lake connecting the Muskegon River and Lake Michigan. These stations included the 103 mouth of the Muskegon River (43.250133,-86.2557), the channel to Bear Lake (43.238717,- (100 µm x 100 µm) that were not associated with any particles were counted as free-living 125 bacteria, whereas bacteria that were on particles were counted as particle-associated.…”

17Eukaryotic communities commonly display a positive relationship between biodiversity and 18 ecosystem function (BEF). Based on current studies, it remains uncertain to what extent these 19 findings extend to bacterial communities. An extrapolation from eukaryotic relationships would 20 predict there to be no BEF relationships for bacterial communities because they are generally 21 composed of an order of magnitude more taxa than the communities in most eukaryotic BEF 22 studies. Here, we sampled surface water of a freshwater, estuarine lake to evaluate BEF 23 relationships in bacterial communities across a natural productivity gradient. We assessed the 24 impact of habitat heterogeneity -an important factor influencing eukaryotic BEFs -on the 25 relationship between species richness, evenness, phylogenetic diversity, and heterotrophic 26 productivity by sampling co-occurring free-living (more homogenous) and particle-associated 27 (more heterogeneous) bacterial habitats. Diversity measures, and not environmental variables, 28were the best predictors of particles-associated heterotrophic production. There was a strong, 29 positive, linear relationship between particle-associated bacterial richness and heterotrophic 30 productivity that was strengthened when considering evenness. There were no observable BEF 31 trends in free-living bacterial communities. In contrast, per-capita but not community-wide 32 heterotrophic productivity increased across both habitats as communities were composed of taxa 33 that were more phylogenetically clustered. This association indicates that communities with 34 more phylogenetically related taxa have higher per-capita heterotrophic production than 35 communities of phylogenetically distantly related taxa. Our findings show that lake heterotrophic 36 bacterial productivity can be positively affected by evenness and richness, negatively by 37 phylogenetic diversity, and that BEF relationships are contingent on microhabitats.
