Heterotrophic Protists in Hypersaline Microbial Mats and Deep Hypersaline Basin Water Columns [PDF]

open access: yesLife, 2013
Although hypersaline environments pose challenges to life because of the low water content (water activity), many such habitats appear to support eukaryotic microbes.

Metazoan diversity in Chilean hypersaline lakes unveiled by environmental DNA [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
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 ...

Alternative photothermal/electrothermal hierarchical membrane for hypersaline water treatment

open access: yesSusMat, 2022
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 ...

Methanogens and Methanogenesis in Hypersaline Environments

open access: yes, 2010
Methanogenesis in hypersaline environments is determined by redox potential and permanency of anaerobic conditions, and by the concentration of other terminal electron acceptors, particularly sulfate, because sulfate-reducing bacteria have a greater affinity than methanogens for competitive substrates like hydrogen and acetate.

Biogeochemical Cycling in Globally Distributed Hypersaline Environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Studying extremophiles allows the characterisation of the boundaries of life on Earth and the identification of metabolic processes that fuel biogeochemical cycling under extreme conditions.

Metagenomic Insights into Microbial Community Structure, Function, and Salt Adaptation in Saline Soils of Arid Land, China

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Soil salinization is spread in the dryland of NW China due to the dry or extreme dry climate. Increased salinization damages the health and function of soil systems and influences the microbial community structure and function.

Diversity of Fauna in Crimean Hypersaline Water Bodies [PDF]

open access: yesЖурнал Сибирского федерального университета: Серия Биология, 2018
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

Accumulation patterns of intracellular salts in a new halophilic amoeboflagellate, Euplaesiobystra salpumilio sp. nov., (Heterolobosea; Discoba) under hypersaline conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Halophilic microbial eukaryotes are present in many eukaryotic lineages and major groups; however, our knowledge of their diversity is still limited. Furthermore, almost nothing is known about the intracellular accumulation of salts in most halophilic ...

Metabolic adaptation of diatoms to hypersalinity

open access: yesPhytochemistry, 2022
Microalgae are important primary producers and form the basis for the marine food web. As global climate changes, so do salinity levels that algae are exposed to. A metabolic response of algal cells partly alleviates the resulting osmotic stress.
