The Collective Power of Bacteria as a Blueprint for Emergent Intelligence
Small cells, powerful collectives. Bacteria demonstrate how sophisticated behaviors can emerge from many simple individuals working together. We explore the remarkable world of bacterial communities and the mechanisms that underpin their complex emergent behaviors, enabling impressive adaptability, robustness, and responsiveness to changing ...

Fresh waters provide environmental conditions that favour microbial CO2 and CH4 production, leading to the release of large quantities of greenhouse gases (GHG) to the atmosphere.

Microbial plankton communities do not always respond to inorganic nutrient additions in coastal waters off NW Spain. However, enhanced growth of phytoplankton and heterotrophic bacteria has been observed when exposed to both inorganic (nitrate, ammonium ...

Distribution of phytoplankton functional types in high-nitrate low-chlorophyll waters in a new diagnostic ecological indicator model [PDF]
Modeling and monitoring plankton functional types (PFTs) is challenged by insufficient amount of field measurements to ground-truth both plankton models and bio-optical algorithms.

Phytoplankton, microzooplankton, copepod and dissolved nutrient data from a mesocosm experiment, which took place in summer 2016. A range of Si:N ratios and two levels of copepod grazing pressure were manipulated on a natural plankton community in Kiel ...

Pelagic ecosystems are inherently complex in coastal inlets where they are controlled by physical processes and influenced by biogeochemical and foodweb interactions. Meteorological events are important drivers of this ecological variability. This thesis

Towards a mechanistic model of plankton population dynamics
A plankton population model is developed from literature studies with mechanistic descriptions of interactions of individual plankton cells. Interactions considered include diffusion and convection of nutrients to phytoplankton cell surfaces, light ...
