Microbial ecology of Antarctic aquatic systems

open access: yesNature Reviews Microbiology, 2015
The Earth's biosphere is dominated by cold environments, and the cold biosphere is dominated by microorganisms. Microorganisms in cold Southern Ocean waters are recognized for having crucial roles in global biogeochemical cycles, including carbon sequestration, whereas microorganisms in other Antarctic aquatic biomes are not as well understood. In this

Seasonal variation in size structure and production of autotrophic plankton community in eutrophied, low-light environment: A focus on Mesodinium rubrum

open access: yesOceanologia, 2023
Temporal variations in the primary production of the size-fractionated autotrophic plankton community were studied in coastal-estuarine waters of the eutrophic Gulf of Riga, Baltic Sea.

Integrating citizen science and environmental DNA metabarcoding to study biodiversity of groundwater amphipods in Switzerland

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Groundwater is the physically largest freshwater ecosystem, yet one of the least explored habitats on earth, both because of accessing difficulties and the scarcity of the organisms inhabiting it.

Environmental changes associated with drying climate are expected to affect functional groups of pro- and microeukaryotes differently in temporary saline waters

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Temporary ponds are among the most sensitive aquatic habitats to climate change. Their microbial communities have crucial roles in food webs and biogeochemical cycling, yet how their communities are assembled along environmental gradients is still ...

Ecology and Biology of Aquatic Insects [PDF]

open access: yesInsects, 2021
The advancement of our knowledge on the ecology and biology of aquatic insects is essential to improving our understanding of their roles in water quality, disease ecology, as indicators of climate change, biodiversity, as well as community structure and ecosystem functioning [...]
