Extreme wildfire conditions shift coastal phytoplankton community structure in California
Abstract Extreme wildfires have increased in frequency and intensity globally, particularly in the Western United States. Here we examine how the 2020 Lightning Complex Fires in California influenced coastal phytoplankton communities using monitoring network data products in the Monterey Bay, the ocean region closest to this large fire.

Stability of marine phytoplankton communities facing stress related to global change: Interactive effects of heat waves and turbidity [PDF]
According to climate models, coastal ecosystems will face an increased frequency of heat waves and increased turbidity due to terrestrial sediment run-off induced by increasing precipitation.

Hierarchical modeling of Baltic Sea phytoplankton reveals increasing cyanobacteria dominance
Abstract Understanding how phytoplankton communities respond to environmental changes is critical for mitigating the impact of changing oceans. To identify the main drivers of changes in phytoplankton community composition and species richness, hierarchical modeling of species communities (HMSC) was used to model the summer phytoplankton communities ...

Comment: Food web interactions and biomanipulation in Australian reservoirs [PDF]
The authors have been studying the control of phytoplankton biomass in several Australian reservoirs. To manipulate fish communities in order to reduce phytoplankton biomass, one needs a thorough understanding of processes in the plankton-associated food

Rainfall increases the biomass and drives the taxonomic and morpho-functional groups variability of phytoplankton in a subtropical urban lake [PDF]
: Aim To explore the short-term effects of rainfall events on the biomass, density, and richness of the phytoplankton community during dry and rainy periods, as well as on the selection and response of Morphology-Based Functional Groups (MBFG). Methods

Abstract Climate change profoundly alters riverine flow regimes and community composition, affecting key ecosystem functions. We used an experimental mesocosm approach to examine how gradual flow velocity reduction (Experiment 1) and flushing events (Experiment 2) influence periphyton community composition and metabolism, with and without a ...

Settlement of Macoma balthica larvae in response to benthic diatom films [PDF]
The role of multi-species benthic diatom films (BDF) in the settlement of late pediveliger larvae of the bivalve Macoma balthica was investigated in still-water bioassays and multiple choice flume experiments.

Abstract Benthic microalgal (BMA) communities contribute significantly to food webs, nutrient cycling, and carbon flows in intertidal habitats. However, the contribution of BMA to saltmarsh carbon stocks (“blue carbon”) is unclear. BMA and sediment total organic carbon (TOC) stocks were measured in an east coast American Atlantic saltmarsh, revealing ...
