Dominance and toxicity without lethality: Exploring biomass, cyanometabolites, and Daphnia responses across Cyanobacterial strains

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cyanobacteria are cosmopolitan, important components of biomass with a remarkable ability to synthesize a diverse array of bioactive compounds, some of which may have toxic effects on other organisms and ecosystems. In this study, filamentous cyanobacterial strains isolated predominantly from temperate European freshwaters (Aphanizomenon ...

Soil phosphorus drives subcontinental patterns of carbon isotope discrimination across Australia

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Several transects have been established to study the sensitivity of carbon isotope discrimination (Δ13C) in woody plants to mean annual precipitation (MAP) across Australia. These have shown a surprising divergence in Δ13C‐MAP sensitivity among subcontinental regions.

Ice storm effects on the canopy structure of a northern hardwood forest after 8 years [PDF]

, 2009
Ice storms can cause severe damage to forest canopies, resulting in differential mortality among tree species and size classes and leading to long-lasting changes in the vertical structure and composition of the forest.

Tree stem methane emissions are regulated by site‐level biogeochemistry over species identity in Amazon floodplain forests

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Tree stems in Amazonian floodplains emit substantial methane (CH4), yet controls on emission variability remain unclear. Emissions span orders of magnitude between várzea (nutrient‐rich) and igapó (nutrient‐poor) forests and among trees, suggesting controls beyond flooding.

Ocean warming indirectly affects seagrass performance through effects on sediment microbial communities

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Belowground microbes are increasingly recognised as mediators of plant responses to stress, but it remains unclear whether the thermal histories of marine plants and their associated belowground microbes influence plant performance under ocean warming.

Shallow and deep groundwater moderate methane dynamics in a high Arctic glacial catchment

Frontiers in Earth Science
Glacial groundwater can mobilize deep-seated methane from beneath glaciers and permafrost in the Arctic, leading to atmospheric emissions of this greenhouse gas.

Wetland plant growth in recycled glass sand versus dredged river sand: evaluating a new resource for coastal restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Sand made from recycled glass cullet could supplement limited dredged river sand (dredge) in coastal wetland restorations; however, its suitability for wetland plants is unknown. In two experiments, we compared the biomass of several wetland plants in recycled glass sand to growth in dredge.

Bioturbating bivalves show potential to bioremediate degraded soft sediments by restoring ecosystem function

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Natural recovery of disturbed marine ecosystems can take years, mainly because long‐lived, functionally important species are lost. To regain ecosystem services, the focus of estuarine restoration is shifting from biodiversity metrics to functional restoration.

Proximate controls on semiarid soil greenhouse gas fluxes across 3 million years of soil development [PDF]

, 2015
Soils are important sources and sinks of three greenhouse gases (GHGs): carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O). However, it is unknown whether semiarid landscapes are important contributors to global fluxes of these gases, partly ...

Sedimentary biogeochemical provinces in the northern limit of the oxygen minimum zone from the northeastern Mexican Pacific

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Continental margins are reservoirs of materials of terrestrial and marine origin, and they play a crucial role in understanding the spatial and temporal variability of biogeochemical cycles. This, in turn, provides insights into the development and intensity of oxygen minimum zones (OMZs).
