CLEAN – Soil, Air, Water, Volume 54, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Dairy wastewater has raised many concerns because it is highly contaminated with high levels of organic matter. The major sources of contaminants in dairy wastewater are clean‐in‐place products, which are used to sanitize production lines, and whey, which is a byproduct of cheese and pressed yogurt.

Topic Modeling of Fatty Acid Studies: Evaluating Environmental Changes in Freshwater Ecosystems
International Review of Hydrobiology, Volume 111, Issue 1, June 2026.ABSTRACT Fatty acids (FAs) are biochemical molecules with vital structural and metabolic functions in all living organisms. Over the last decades, FA analysis in ecological studies has garnered significant attention due to its diverse applicability, such as taxonomic support for species identification, investigations on trophic interactions, and ...

Urea provides an important nitrogen source for microbial populations in an ultraoligotrophic sea
Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 6, June 2026.Urea is an organic nitrogen (N) compound directly utilized by both heterotrophic prokaryotes and some photoautotrophs. Reports of either ambient urea concentrations or urea uptake rates from the ultraoligotrophic eastern Mediterranean Sea are lacking. We investigated urea distribution and uptake in the upper water column in the Levantine basin during ...

Accounting for mixotrophy within microbial food webs [PDF]
, 2019 Protist plankton contribute to both primary and secondary production in the oceans fuelling life within pelagic food webs. Despite commonly perceived as ‘phytoplankton’ or ‘zooplankton’, most protist plankton are mixotrophs through the combination of ...

Sponges are celebrated heterotrophs but also key primary producers on changing coral reefs
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1561-1577, June 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Trophic interactions and nutrient cycling lay at the heart of ecosystem health and biodiversity. In recent years, our understanding of these drivers has been repeatedly challenged by rapid and unanticipated climatic effects, combined with an increasing awareness that ...

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 6, June 2026.Habitat type influences protistan diversity and community structure and its effect is stronger than that of geographic distance at large spatial scales. We revealed 9 ecological clusters of soil protists and their environmental preferences and found protistan consumers foraging targets may concentrate under degraded environments.
