Biogeographical Distribution of River Microbial Communities in Atlantic Catchments. [PDF]
Environ Microbiol RepWe discovered different factors affecting river microbial communities (RMC) diversity and composition across Atlantic catchments in Europe. Prokaryote diversity was mainly influenced by topography and geology, while eukaryotic groups were driven by land use and cover.

The forgotten world of subaerial desmids (Zygnematophyceae) in the Atlantic Forest, southeast Brazil
Phytotaxa, 2022 Although desmids (Zygnematophyceae) are widely distributed, their diversity in subaerial environments remains little known and explored. Subaerial algae live above the soil in a thin water film, directly exposed to the air.

How hidden is the diversity of the genus Cosmarium (Desmidiaceae) in the Brazilian Caatinga?
Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2021 The Caatinga domain is the largest and most diverse tropical semiarid ecoregion of South America; however, little is known about the diversity of desmids it harbors, especially the genus Cosmarium (Desmidiaceae, Zygnematophyceae).

Temperature-dependent responses to light and nutrients in phytoplankton. [PDF]
EcologyAbstract Nutrients and light are major resources controlling growth, biomass, and community structure of phytoplankton. When looking at those resources individually, resource uptake and biochemical transformation, and thereby also the demand for resources, have been shown to be temperature‐dependent.

New Records of Desmids from Blanket Bogs in Turkey
Transylvanian Review of Systematical and Ecological Research, 2022 Peatlands are one of the globally important ecosystems. Blanket bogs are a type of peatlands where water is generally supplied by meteorological events (rain, snow).

Journal of Water Resource and Protection, 2021 Drinking water sources in many African countries have been progressively degraded over the past decades. This degradation due to human activities leads to the proliferation of algae, especially toxin-producing cyanobacteria.
