Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) constitute a considerable fraction of microbial biomass in the global ocean, comprising 20-40% of the ocean’s prokaryotic plankton and thus play an important role in global nitrogen cycle.

Abstract Understanding the mechanisms shaping food chain length (FCL) has long been central to food web ecology. FCL is a key determinant of stability, energy flow efficiency, and biodiversity maintenance, but there is an ongoing debate about its underlying drivers.

A review towards finding a simplified approach for modelling the kinetics of the soluble microbial products (SMP) in an integrated mathematical model of membrane bioreactor (MBR) [PDF]
Soluble microbial products (SMPs) tend to accumulate in the membrane bioreactor (MBR) systems as a consequence of high membrane rejection and apparently low biodegradability within the wastewater treatment system.

Abstract BACKGROUND This study investigated the effects of different culture modes – autotrophy, mixotrophy and heterotrophy – on polyglucan accumulation and molecular weight distribution in four Galdieria sulphuraria strains. Understanding the impact of these culture modes helps optimize the production of reserve carbohydrates and modify their ...

Ecosystem metabolism is an integrative measure of the production and respiration of carbon in aquatic ecosystems. However, under-ice regions and mixing periods are infrequently sampled because of logistical challenges and assumptions of low biological ...

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 ...

Evaluating coral trophic strategies using fatty acid composition and indices.
The ecological success of shallow water reef-building corals has been linked to the symbiosis between the coral host and its dinoflagellate symbionts (herein 'symbionts').

Abstract Lagoons are recognized as significant CO2 sources in the global carbon cycle. However, the lack of comprehensive measurements capturing simultaneous spatiotemporal variations in partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2) limits our understanding of mechanisms driving CO2 dynamics in lagoons.

Putting the N in dinoflagellates
The cosmopolitan presence of dinoflagellates in aquatic habitats is now believed to be a direct consequence of the different trophic modes they have developed through evolution.
