Abstract Periphyton blooms may be increasing in oligotrophic lakes due to warming water temperatures and increased nutrient loads associated with climate change. Such blooms decrease both water quality and the aesthetic value of nearshore areas, but identifying the mechanisms driving periphyton blooms in situ is complex.

The study examines the impact of salinity on surface properties of freshwater Synechocystis sp. PCC6803, marine Synechococcus sp. PCC8806 and alkaliphilic Spirulina platensis. The differences in membrane restructuring between marine and non‐marine species highlight phosphorus as an important energy resource during membrane restructuring under high ...

The aquatic microbiome can influence cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms. Abundances of genes and transcripts for phosphorus acquisition, denitrification and nitrogen fixation were higher upstream, whereas in Lake Erie genes and transcripts for microcystin production were higher.

An Unexpected Facet of Extremophiles: Their Aesthetic Potential in Artistic Expression
In an era marked by environmental challenges and the proliferation of misinformation, the fusion of art and science is a strategy to promote public understanding and appreciation of complex scientific phenomena. We illustrate how the use of extremophiles offers novel avenues for artistic exploration and emphasise the benefits of such interdisciplinary ...
