Peat oxic and anoxic controls of Sphagnum decomposition rates in the Holocene Peatland Model decomposition module estimated from litterbag data [PDF]
The Holocene Peatland Model (HPM) is a widely applied model for understanding and predicting long-term peat accumulation, but it is difficult to test due to its complexity, measurement errors, and lack of data.

For the first time in Gammarus insensibilis, a single‐organism 1H NMR metabolomics approach was applied to investigate the intrapopulation variability in growth trajectories showing how divergent size classes, despite being of the same age, reflect alternative resource‐allocation strategies.

PLFAs of the microbial communities in composting mixtures of agro-industry sludge with different proportions of household waste [PDF]
Phospholipid fatty acids (PLFAs) were analysed at different time periods during composting of two waste mixtures rich in fats, M1 (22%) and M2 (39%), with the aim of monitoring changes in microbial community structure.

Catchment Influences on Carbon Stable Isotope Variation in Trout; Might It Be Methane?
Trout stable carbon isotope values vary significantly and appear to relate to catchment characteristics. Low carbon stable isotope values are linked to catchments with low drainage soil and high cover of pasture land use. This is likely to be linked to high levels of methane‐derived carbon entering the stream food web.

Abstract Agricultural soils are sources of nitrous oxide (N2O) and, under prolonged saturation, methane (CH4)—two potent greenhouse gases (GHGs). Soil management, field topography, and climate all influence GHG emissions, yet their interactions are not well understood.

The diversity and ecological role of protozoa in fresh waters [PDF]
Protozoa feed on and regulate the abundance of most types of aquatic microorganisms, and they are an integral part of all aquatic microbial food webs. Being so small, aerobic protozoa thrive at low oxygen tensions, where they feed (largely unaffected by ...

Abstract Investigations of hydrostatic pressure effects on microbial enzymatic processing are challenging but critical for understanding element cycling in the world's oceans. In this study, we developed and tested a stainless‐steel pressure cell capable of withstanding up to 110 MPa of hydrostatic pressure (equivalent to ~ 11,000 m depth), featuring ...
