Morphomolecular Characterization of Two New Species of the Genus Bothrostoma Stokes, 1887 (Ciliophora: Metopidae)

open access: yesJournal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Although species diversity has been extensively studied in anaerobic ciliates, their full diversity is incompletely understood. More research is required to gain further insights into their diversity. In this study, two new metopid ciliates, namely, Bothrostoma oryzaforme nov. sp. and Bothrostoma turgidoryzaforme nov.

Investigations of Methane Production in Hypersaline Environments

open access: yes, 2015
The recent reports of methane in the atmosphere of Mars, as well as the findings of hypersaline paleo-environments on that planet, have underscored the need to evaluate the importance of biological (as opposed to geological) trace gas production and ...

Habitat Suitability for a Unique, Fully Marine American Manatee (Trichechus manatus) Population Primarily Depends on Presence of Submarine Freshwater Springs

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The American manatee (Trichechus manatus) requires freshwater mainly from rivers and springs to maintain osmoregulatory balance in saline environments. However, in Brazil's semi‐arid Potiguar Basin, manatees now rely solely on submarine freshwater springs because hypersaline estuaries have become unsuitable sources of freshwater.

Identifying knowledge gaps in hypersaline systems supporting the global electrical transition: invertebrate community structure in salars from the lithium triangle [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ
Following decades of mining impacts, South America’s hypersaline wetlands (salars) face increasing threats from lithium extraction to support global decarbonisation.

Uptake and turnover of acetate in hypersaline environments [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Ecology, 1995
Abstract Acetate uptake and turnover rates were determined for the heterotrophic community in hypersaline environments (saltern crystallizer ponds, the Dead Sea) dominated by halpphilic Archaea. Acetate was formed from glycerol, which is potentially the major available carbon source for natural communities of halophilic Archaea.

Elucidating the Reactivity and Fate of Dissolved Organic Matter in Groundwater Entering the Alaska Beaufort Sea Coast Using 14C Ramped Oxidation

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Supra‐permafrost groundwater (SPGW) is a significant but understudied source of dissolved organic matter (DOM) to Arctic coastal systems. We applied ramped pyrolysis/oxidation (RPO) with Δ14C and δ13C isotopic analysis to assess DOM reactivity and origin in SPGW, river, and lagoon waters along the Alaska Beaufort Sea coast.

Establishment of the blue crab Callinectes sapidus (Rathbun, 1896) in a Mediterranean hypersaline basin: evidence of ecological plasticity and range expansion [PDF]

open access: yesNeoBiota
A central aspect of ecology is the understanding of how environmental factors influence species distribution, population structure, and dynamics, ultimately highlighting species’ capacity to adapt to environmental shifts.

Recent Advances in Zirconium‐Based Metal–Organic Framework Membranes for Desalination

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 33, 15 June 2026.
Zirconium‐based metal–organic framework membranes with tunable pore architectures, defect chemistry, and surface functionalities for Desalination are systematically reviewed. Their fabrication strategies, desalination performance across pressure‐driven, forward osmosis, and pervaporation processes, and structure–property–performance relationships are ...

Stable Zr-Based MetalOrganic Framework Nanoporous Membrane for Efficient Desalination of Hypersaline Water

open access: yes, 2021
Treatment of hypersaline waters is a critical environmental challenge. Pervaporation (PV) desalination is a promising technique to address this challenge, but current PV membranes still suffer from challenging issues such as low flux and insufficient ...

Ergosterol biosynthesis in novel melanized fungi from hypersaline environments

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2001
Halotolerant and halophilic melanized fungi were recently described in hypersaline waters. A close study of the sterol composition of such fungi, namely Hortaea werneckii, Alternaria alternata, Cladosporium sphaerospermum, Cladosporium sp., and ...
