Biological and chemical characterization of new isolated halophilic microorganisms from saltern ponds of Trapani, Sicily [PDF]
Halophilic microorganisms inhabiting hypersaline environments such as salt lakes, Dead Sea, or salt evaporation ponds, have acquired specific cell adaptation to grow within stressful conditions.

Salterns are hypersaline extreme environments with unique physicochemical properties such as a salinity gradient. Although the investigation of microbiota in salterns has focused on archaea and bacteria, diverse fungi also thrive in the brine and soil of salterns.

Solar salterns are constructed as shallow multi-pond systems for the production of halite through evaporation of seawater. The main feature of salterns is the discontinuous salinity gradient that provides a range of well-defined habitats with increasing salinities, from moderate to hypersaline.

Distribution and types of bacteria isolated from an inland saltern
Annales De L'Institut Pasteur Microbiologie, 1987The physico-chemical characteristics and bacterial populations of an inland saltern were studied. The well water leading into the ponds of the saltern differed from sea water in its total salinity (18% (w/v)) and had lower Mg2+ and SO4(2-) contents and much higher contents of Cl-, Ca2+- and K+.

Salterns provide special living conditions for microorganisms. They are extreme environments because of high concentrations of NaCl and other salts, occasional rapid changes in water activity, low oxygen concentration, and high UV radiation (Brock 1979).

Prokaryotic diversity of a Tunisian multipond solar saltern
Extremophiles, 200816S rRNA gene clone libraries were separately constructed from three ponds with different salt concentrations, M2 (15%), TS38 (25%) and S5 (32%), located within a multipond solar saltern of Sfax. The 16S rRNA genes from 216 bacterial clones and 156 archaeal clones were sequenced and phylogenetically analyzed.

Modelling the phytoplankton dynamics in a nutrient-rich solar saltern pond: predicting the impact of restoration and climate change [PDF]
International audienceAn ecological model for the solar saltern of Sfax (Tunisia) was established and validated by comparing simulation results to observed data relative to horizontal distributions of temperature, nutrients and phytoplankton biomass ...
