Our study reveals (based on experiments) the shifts in protistan plankton communities, serving as energy and organic matter source for higher trophic levels if the Humboldt Current System is affected by climate change as predicted by current models. This may have profound effects on fisheries in the Humboldt Current System.

Bacterioplankton Metabolism in Hydroelectric Reservoirs
Reservoirs are anthropogenic aquatic systems accounting to a substantial portion of the contemporary distribution, and dynamic, of freshwater systems across a wide geographical gradient throughout the Globe, with potential to increase its participation due to the growth of world’s economy and need for energy.

Increased variability of microbial communities in restored salt marshes nearly 30 years after tidal flow restoration [PDF]
We analyzed microbial diversity and community composition from four salt marsh sites that were impounded for 40–50 years and subsequently restored and four unimpounded sites in southeastern Connecticut over one growing season.

Revealing the Physiological Patterns of Dinoflagellates in North‐Eastern Adriatic Phytoplankton
Using metatranscriptomics, we have described the annual taxonomic and functional succession of the phytoplankton community in the north‐eastern Adriatic Sea, taking into account the effects of environmental factors on succession. The results obtained in this way represent the first comprehensive physiological characterisation of the phytoplankton ...

Abstract This study presents the first multi‐year assessment quantifying the contribution of primary production to vertical carbon flux in the ultra‐oligotrophic southeastern Levantine basin of the Mediterranean Sea. Depth‐integrated (0–180 m) daily primary productivity (PP) was 25% higher in the mixed winter period than in the stratified period (123 ...

Microalgae blooms are a frequent occurrence in coastal waters worldwide. It is reasonable to assume that these blooms have various influences on bacterial communities, which in turn may affect the development and dissipation of the bloom.

Impact of treated sewage effluent on the microbiology of a small brook using flow cytometry as a diagnostic tool [PDF]
Flow cytometry was applied to assess the microbiological impact of treated sewage effluent discharge into a small brook carrying surface runoff water. Increases in dissolved organic carbon and soluble reactive phosphorous were accompanied by increases in

Wave‐driven transport controls bacterioplankton community differentiation among coral reef habitats
Abstract The existence of highly productive coral reefs within oligotrophic gyres is in part due to intensive recycling of macronutrients and organic matter by microbes. Therefore, characterizing reef bacterioplankton communities is key for understanding reef metabolism and biogeochemical transformations. We performed a high‐resolution survey of waters

Inorganic nutrient limitation of oceanic bacterioplankton [PDF]
Although it is commonly accepted that dissolved organic carbon (DOC) of algal origin limits bacterial growth in pelagic systems, there are relatively few empirical studies documenting this effect. Depending on site and season, both organic and inorganic nutrients can limit the growth of freshwater bacteria.

Bacterioplankton communities play a crucial role in freshwater ecosystem functioning, but it is unknown how co-occurrence networks within these communities respond to human activity disturbances. This represents an important knowledge gap because changes
