Integrating and assessing metacommunity drivers of ecosystem function and resilience in benthic algal systems

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Understanding the scales and mechanisms by which species composition interacts with ecosystem functions is critical for forecasting the effects of environmental perturbations on ecosystem services. However, the linkages between what regulates the ecosystem functions of dispersal‐capable networks of communities (metacommunities) and what regulates a ...

Resource competition between buoyancy‐regulating and sinking phytoplankton species along a stratified water column

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
In temperate lakes, plankton dynamics are closely linked to seasonal shifts in water stratification, following air temperature. The onset of summer stratification typically coincides with the formation of an algal spring bloom in the well‐mixed surface layer (epilimnion).

Effects of Glyphosate on the Planktonic Microbiota: An Experimental Approach

Environmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 10, Page 889-905, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Glyphosate is one of the most widely used herbicides in the world, including in Brazil, and its dispersion through habitats and surface waters can impact entire aquatic ecosystems. However, experimental studies evaluating the effects of pesticides on whole planktonic communities, considering attributes such as richness, density and composition—

Cyanopeptide Mixtures Induce Variable Synergistic and Antagonistic Effects Across Diverse Human Cell Lines

Environmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 10, Page 807-821, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) threaten human, animal, and ecosystem health and safety through production of toxic secondary metabolites. Microcystis, a cosmopolitan bloom‐forming cyanobacterial genus, is well‐known for producing hepatotoxic microcystins (MCs), but it can produce many other bioactive cyanopeptides, such as ...

What Makes Lakes Vulnerable to Cyanobacteria Blooms?

"Find out what makes lakes vulnerable to cyanobacteria blooms (also known as blue-green algae). Hint – it’s not just phosphorus! While excess nutrients support the growth of cyanobacteria blooms, some types of water bodies are more vulnerable, and some ...

Seasonal Variations in Aerosol Trace Element Source Contributions and Deposition Fluxes to the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre

Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Trace elements deposited in the marine environment affect ocean biogeochemistry in numerous, complex ways. This study quantifies seasonal aerosol trace element (TE) fluxes and evaluates their variability and potential sources over a 2‐year period in the North Pacific subtropical gyre (NPSG). We established the Hawaii Aerosol Time Series (HATS),

Assessing cyanobacterial spatial distribution in reservoirs using acoustic survey techniques for enhanced water quality management

Current Research in Microbial Sciences
Increases in water temperature due to climate change are expected to lead to cyanobacterial blooms in various freshwater bodies, including reservoirs, posing a major challenge in terms of water quality management.

Surface Chlorophyll‐a Trends in the Mediterranean Sea: Seasonal Bloom Dynamics and Drivers

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Chlorophyll‐a (Chl‐a) is the most widely used proxy for phytoplankton biomass, bloom intensity, and trophic status in marine ecosystems. We analyzed 27 years (1998–2024) of 1 km‐resolution satellite‐derived Chl‐a data across the Mediterranean Sea and evaluated long‐term trends, bloom phenology, and seasonal variability in relation to sea ...

Organic Matter Dynamics and Biogeochemical Signatures in Lakes From the Prairies to Tundra in Western Canada

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Climate‐driven poleward shifts of terrestrial ecosystems are expected to alter organic matter inputs and biogeochemical processes in northern lakes. In regions lacking long‐term observations, latitudinal gradients provide valuable space‐for‐time substitutions for predicting these changes.

Climate change triggered planktonic cyanobacterial blooms in a regulated temperate river

Scientific Reports
Harmful algae blooms are a rare phenomenon in rivers but seem to increase with climate change and river regulation. To understand the controlling factors of cyanobacteria blooms that occurred between 2017 and 2020 over long stretches (> 250 km) of the ...
