Phytoplankton functional and morphological groups as indicators of environmental variability in a lateral channel of the Upper Paraná River floodplain

open access: yesActa Limnologica Brasiliensia, 2014
AIM: Models of phytoplankton functional classification based on functional (FGs) and morphological (MBFGs) traits can be an important tool in aquatic monitoring.

Zooplankton size composition and production just after drastic ice coverage changes in the northern Bering Sea assessed via ZooScan

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Drastic environmental changes were noted in the northern Bering Sea in 2018. A reduction in sea ice affected several trophic levels within the ecosystem; this resulted in delayed phytoplankton blooms, the northward shifting of fish stocks, and a decrease

Combined use of chlorophyll a and phycocyanin fluorescence sensors for quantification and differentiation of phytoplankton: a useful approach for small surface water bodies

open access: yesActa Biologica Slovenica, 2018
Sensors based on in vivo measurements of photosynthetic pigments fluorescence enable real-time phytoplankton monitoring with high spatial and temporal resolution. A combination of chlorophyll a (CHL) and phycocyanin (PC) fluorescence sensors was used for

Per capita interactions and stress tolerance drive stress-induced changes in biodiversity effects on ecosystem functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Environmental stress changes the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem functions, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Because species interactions shape biodiversity-ecosystem functioning relationships, changes in per capita ...

Relationships between biovolume and carbon and nitrogen content of bacterioplankton [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Ecology, 1994
Cell volume, carbon and nitrogen content were determined for bacteria grown in batch cultures in water samples collected at five localities in western Florida, USA. Cultures were set up by inoculating 0.2 μm filtered water with 2.5 to 7.0% of 1.0 μm filtered water. Biovolumes of the bacteria were measured by epifluorescence photomicrography.

Morphology and LPS content for the estimation of marine bacterioplankton biomass in the Ionian Sea

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2004
The abundance, morphotypes and biomass of the bacterial assemblages were investigated in the Ionian Sea by using two different methods: the epifluorescent microscopy technique for enumerating and sizing bacterial cells, and the determination of bacterial

Effect of brushing on surface roughness, fluoride release, and biofilm formation with different tooth-colored materials

open access: yesJournal of Dental Sciences, 2022
Background/purpose: Tooth brushing, material mechanical ageing procedure, is the most effective way in removing biofilm. The purpose of this study was to investigate the surface roughness, fluoride-release, and S.

Antagonistic and synergistic responses to solar ultraviolet radiation and increased temperature of phytoplankton from cenotes (sink holes) of the Yucatán Peninsula, México [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Cenotes (sink holes) are karstic formations characteristic of the Yucatán Peninsula and are the main source of fresh water in the region. Because of their tropical location, they receive high levels of solar radiation and are exposed to high temperatures.
