Short-term climatic change in lake sediments from lake Alchichica, Oriental, Mexico [PDF]
Reduced precipitation in central Mexico is related to ENSO events. These short-term climatic fluctuations can modify mixing-stratification patterns of lake systems, reflected in the sediments deposited at the bottom year after year.

Prokaryotic and eukaryotic community structure in field and cultured microbialites from the alkaline Lake Alchichica (Mexico). [PDF]
The geomicrobiology of crater lake microbialites remains largely unknown despite their evolutionary interest due to their resemblance to some Archaean analogs in the dominance of in situ carbonate precipitation over accretion.

Planktonic bloom-forming Nodularia in the saline Lake Alchichica, Mexico [PDF]
Lake Alchichica displays a characteristic cyanobacterial bloom associated with the onset of the stratification period. It mostly consists of the nitrogen-fixing cyanobacterium Nodularia spumigena.

Rapid formation of mature microbialites in Lake Alchichica, Mexico [PDF]
Summary Microbialites are emblematic sedimentary rocks formed by phylogenetically and metabolically complex microbial communities thriving under specific physicochemical conditions. Most microbialites are photosynthesis‐based ecosystems frequently formed by carbonates, thereby capturing inorganic carbon in the ...

Abstract Rincon de Parangueo (RP) is a Quaternary maar crater located in the Michoacan‐Guanajuato Volcanic Field in central Mexico. Like other volcanic craters in the region, the central part was occupied by an endorheic lacustrine system. As a consequence of extensive groundwater extraction, the perennial lake started a gradual desiccation process and

The hidden role of dissolved organic carbon in the biogeochemical cycle of carbon in modern redox-stratified lakes [PDF]
The dissolved organic carbon (DOC) reservoir plays a critical role in the C cycle of marine and freshwater environments because of its size and implication in many biogeochemical reactions.

ABSTRACT Lake Chalco, in Central Mexico, has a long diatom record which provides an excellent opportunity to document the biotic and hydrological responses of this ecosystem to orbital‐ and millennial‐scale climatic variability during the last 150 ka. Detrended correspondence analysis was used to evaluate the ecological turnover and to identify diatom ...

A subjective global checklist of the extant non-marine Ostracoda (Crustacea) [PDF]
We present an updated, subjective list of the extant, non-marine ostracod genera and species of the world, with their distributions in the major zoogeographical regions, as well as a list of the genera in their present hierarchical taxonomic positions ...
