Heterotrophic Protists in Hypersaline Microbial Mats and Deep Hypersaline Basin Water Columns [PDF]
Although hypersaline environments pose challenges to life because of the low water content (water activity), many such habitats appear to support eukaryotic microbes.

Alternative photothermal/electrothermal hierarchical membrane for hypersaline water treatment
Over the last decades, the treatment of the large quantities of hypersaline wastewater generated by conventional industries, inland desalination, and fossil‐fueled power plants has been an important economic issue and also an inescapable green issue ...

The extreme halophilic archaeon Haloferax volcanii reduced Fe(III) to conserve energy from extracellular electron transfer [PDF]
Iron availability affects oceanic primary productivity and the strength of the biological carbon pump. However, the mechanism of iron solubility in hypersaline environments is poorly understood.

Diversity of Parasitic Animals in Hypersaline Waters: A Review
Hypersaline waters are unique polyextreme habitats, where the salinity limits species richness. There are main patterns of a relationship between salinity and the species richness of free-living aquatic animals, but for parasitic organisms, general ...

Eucaryotic Diversity in a Hypersaline Microbial Mat [PDF]
ABSTRACT To determine the eucaryotic diversity of the hypersaline Guerrero Negro microbial mat, we amplified 18S rRNA genes from DNA extracted from this mat and constructed and analyzed clone libraries. The extent of eucaryotic diversity detected was remarkably low, only 15 species among 890 clones analyzed.

Metazoan diversity in Chilean hypersaline lakes unveiled by environmental DNA [PDF]
Saline and hypersaline wetlands are biodiversity hotspots for metazoans such as aquatic invertebrates and wading birds. However, the survival of these habitats and their biota is increasingly threatened by a combination of pressures from climate change ...

Methanogens and Methanogenesis in Hypersaline Environments
Methanogenesis is controlled by redox potential and permanency of anaerobic conditions; and in hypersaline environments, the high concentration of terminal electron acceptors, particularly sulfate, is an important controlling factor. This is because sulfate-reducing microbes, compared with methanogens, have a greater affinity for, and energy yield from,

Microbial diversity in hypersaline wastewater: the example of tanneries
In contrast to conventional wastewater treatment plants and saline environments, little is known regarding the microbial diversity of hypersaline wastewater. In this study, the microbial communities of a hypersaline tannery effluent, and those of three treatment systems operating with the tannery effluent, were investigated using 16S rDNA phylogenetic ...

Diversity of Fauna in Crimean Hypersaline Water Bodies [PDF]
On the Crimean peninsula, there are more than 50 hypersaline water bodies, including the Sivash (the Sea of Azov), the largest hypersaline lagoon in the world. Based on the literature and our own long-term research data (2000–2017), a review of the fauna
