Crystal‐Facet‐Engineered BiOBr(1 1 0)/MXene Sponge–Hydrogel Evaporators for Synergistic Solar Desalination and Non‐Mineralizing Volatile Organic Compound Conversion

SusMat, EarlyView.
A crystal‐facet‐engineered BiOBr(1 1 0)/MXene composite is integrated into a sponge‐hydrogel evaporator to enable synergistic solar desalination and selective, non‐mineralizing conversion of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The dual‐phase structure achieves a high evaporation rate of 2.42 kg m−2 h−1 under one‐sun illumination, sustained salt ...

Circulation and Stratification Changes in a Hypersaline Estuary Due to Mean Sea Level Rise

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Hypersaline Hamelin Pool, with mean salinity >65, is located in Shark Bay, Western Australia. The high salinity has reduced its biodiversity, but it is home to a diverse assemblage of modern marine stromatolites.

Metagenomic data of vertical distribution and abundance of bacterial diversity in the hypersaline sediments of Mad Boon-mangrove ecosystem, Bay of Bengal

Data in Brief, 2019
Bacterial diversity studies in hypersaline soil often yield novel organisms and contribute to our understanding of this extreme environment. Soil from Mad Boon is previously uncharacterized, with dense mangrove forest in one side and hypersaline soil in ...

Microbiome and metagenomic analysis of Lake Hillier Australia reveals pigment-rich polyextremophiles and wide-ranging metabolic adaptations

Environmental Microbiome, 2022
Lake Hillier is a hypersaline lake known for its distinctive bright pink color. The cause of this phenomenon in other hypersaline sites has been attributed to halophiles, Dunaliella, and Salinibacter, however, a systematic analysis of the microbial ...

First genomic analysis of Platycopioida and phylogenomics across six copepod orders

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent advances in bioinformatics have significantly expanded our understanding of the genetic properties of organisms and have provided valuable insights into their phylogenetic relationships and evolutionary histories. However, molecular phylogenetic studies of the class Copepoda remain limited, and the focus has been mainly on the major ...

Salt resistance genes revealed by functional metagenomics from brines and moderate-salinity rhizosphere within a hypersaline environment

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Hypersaline environments are considered one of the most extreme habitats on earth and microorganisms have developed diverse molecular mechanisms of adaptation to withstand these conditions.

Exploring Microbial Resource of Different Rhizocompartments of Dominant Plants Along the Salinity Gradient Around the Hypersaline Lake Ejinur

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Lake littoral zones can also be regarded as another extremely hypersaline environment due to hypersaline properties of salt lakes. In this study, high-throughput sequencing technique was used to analyze bacteria and fungi from different rhizocompartments

Genome‐scale insights into metabolic streamlining and photosynthetic energy balance in the extremophile green alga Picocystis salinarum (Picocystophyceae, Chlorophyta)

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Picocystis salinarum is an early‐diverging chlorophyte and the sole described member of the Picocystophyceae, frequently dominating hypersaline and alkaline lakes despite extreme physicochemical constraints. To elucidate the genomic foundations of its ecological success, we generated a fully annotated, chromosome‐scale nuclear genome assembly ...

Mubarak’S Garden. Land Improvement on a Dry Tropical Island in the Arabian Sea

Journal of Landscape Ecology, 2013
Inhabited dry tropical regions are principally seen as vulnerable areas, especially if people have limited access to suitable land, fresh water and crop seeds.

Duckweeds under salt stress: a meta‐analysis of growth inhibition in relation to morphological and physiological traits and a systematic review of molecular responses

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Salinity reduces duckweed growth responses. Summary Salinity is one of the main environmental factors limiting the performance of duckweeds and despite growing ecological and biotechnological interest in these macrophytes, there is a lack of quantitative analyses of their responses to sodium chloride.
