Freshwater Biodiversity Research in Brazil: Trends from a Systematic Review and Topic Modeling
ABSTRACT Brazil is a megadiverse country that hosts six major biomes and a vast freshwater network. Despite this richness, research on freshwater biodiversity has been heterogeneous across regions, communities, and time, leaving significant knowledge gaps.

ABSTRACT Wildfires are becoming increasingly frequent and severe as a consequence of climate change. Their impacts on terrestrial ecosystems and on the atmosphere include the release of gases and ash, as well as enhanced soil susceptibility to erosion and the downstream transport of materials into aquatic systems.

Lifespan extension in rotifers.
In rotifers (n = 11) IPAM at 10, 20 and 30 µM markedly extended the lifespan of rotifers. These effects were dose dependent and highly significant at all concentrations tested (p values

ABSTRACT Microeukaryotes are important components of microbial food webs in saline and alkaline lakes, yet their diversity and distribution across distinct microhabitats remain poorly understood. We characterized microeukaryotic communities associated with microbialites, microbial mats, hypersaline waters, and sediments in the desiccating maar lake ...

Rates of Filtration and Ingestion of a Microalga by Philodina roseola (Rotifera: Bdelloidea)
Rotifers play an important role in biogeochemical cycles and organic productivity of freshwater ecosystems due to their high metabolic rates. Information on filter feeding, their main process of energy acquisition, are relevant and still scarce for ...

Micro/Nanoscale Acoustic Manipulation: From Particle Control to Autonomous Microswimmers
This conceptual framework illustrates acoustic technology as a multifunctional platform enabling passive particle manipulation across scales and autonomous propulsion of microswimmers. ABSTRACT Acoustic manipulation and propulsion technologies have emerged as powerful platforms for micro/nanoscale control, enabled by their non‐contact operation, label ...
