Abstract Increasing CO2 emissions have led to the development of CO2 removal strategies to counteract ocean acidification. Among these, ocean alkalinity enhancement techniques, particularly ocean liming, may represent a promising approach to restore seawater pH and boost CO2 sequestration.

Short-term responses of littoral phytoplankton in a large shallow subtropical lake [PDF]
The littoral zone is an essential compartment for lake biota because of its high productivity and diversity. Moreover, phytoplankton is expected to have non-equilibrium dynamics on it.

Abstract Blooms of filamentous green algae (FGA) form dense mats at the surface of shallow freshwaters and have multiple negative impacts on aquatic ecosystem functions, services, and aesthetics. Although nutrient enrichment in freshwaters is a primary driver of excessive FGA growth, much less is known about other abiotic factors controlling bloom ...

Abstract Drought events are typically studied as a single stressor. However, multiple environmental variables are altered under drought conditions, including water level and daily temperature variation. Here, we experimentally manipulated both variables in 16 outdoor mesocosms to disentangle how they impact freshwater zooplankton communities.

Abstract Marine heatwaves are expected to become more frequent and intense due to global climate change, potentially impacting plankton communities. In the present study, the effects of a simulated short‐term warming event on the structure and functioning of coastal plankton communities were investigated during a mesocosm experiment conducted with ...

Abstract Many ecosystems receive resource subsidies that affect productivity and food webs. Ecosystem subsidies vary in quantity, quality, and timing, and effects are often mediated by environmental factors, including temperature. Deposition of periodical cicada carcasses into ponds represents a large, high‐quality, infrequent subsidy.

Effects of oligotrophication on fish growth: Insights from a mesocosm experiment
Abstract Human activities can frequently affect aquatic ecosystems in irreversible ways, with flow regulation and water quality being major concerns. Dams can promote the retention of sediments and nutrients, increase water transparency, and reduce primary productivity, all of which characterize the oligotrophication process.
