Arctic mercury cycling

Hélène Paule Angot

Anthropogenic mercury (Hg) emissions have driven marked increases in Arctic Hg levels, which are now being impacted by regional warming, with uncertain ecological consequences. This Review presents a comprehensive assessment of the present-day total Hg mas ...

A roadmap to understanding diversity and function of coral reef-associated fungi

Claudia Isabella Pogoreutz

Tropical coral reefs are hotspots of marine productivity, owing to the association of reef-building corals with endosymbiotic algae and metabolically diverse bacterial communities. However, the functional importance of fungi, well-known for their contribut ...

Seasonal phytoplankton and geochemical shifts in the subsurface chlorophyll maximum layer of a dimictic ferruginous lake

Hannah Elisa Chmiel

Subsurface chlorophyll maxima layers (SCML) are ubiquitous features of stratified aquatic systems. Availability of the micronutrient iron is known to influence marine SCML, but iron has not been explored in detail as a factor in the development of freshwat ...

Viral diversity is linked to bacterial community composition in alpine stream biofilms

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Paraskevi Pramateftaki, Meriem Bekliz

Biofilms play pivotal roles in fluvial ecosystems, yet virtually nothing is known about viruses in these communities. Leveraging an optimized sample-to-sequence pipeline, we studied the spatiotemporal turnover of dsDNA viruses associated with stream biofil ...

Detritus-hosted methanogenesis sustains the methane paradox in an alpine lake

Damien Bouffard, Oscar Rodrigo Sepúlveda Steiner

Accumulation of methane in oxic waters of lakes and the ocean has been widely reported. Despite the importance for the greenhouse gas budget, mechanistic controls of such "methane paradox" remain elusive. Here, we use a combination of CH4 concentration and ...

Future water temperature of rivers in Switzerland under climate change investigated with physics-based models

Michael Lehning, Bettina Schaefli, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Nander Wever, Adrien Michel

River ecosystems are highly sensitive to cli-mate change and projected future increase in air tempera-ture is expected to increase the stress for these ecosystems. Rivers are also an important socio-economic factor impact- ing, amongst others, agriculture, ...

Evolution of stream and lake water temperature under climate change

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Bettina Schaefli, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Adrien Michel, Carl Love Mikael Råman Vinnå

This report presents past observations and projects the future development of water temperature in Swiss lakes and rivers. Projections are made until the end of the 21st century using the CH2018 climate scenarios. Besides climate change effects on temperat ...

Coarse and Fine Particulate Organic Matter Transport by a Fourth-Order Mountain Stream to Lake Bourget (France)

Guillaume Gilbert René Cunillera

Transport of coarse particulate organic matter (CPOM) derived from forest litterfall has been hardly studied in rivers, unlike fine particulate organic matter (FPOM) or dissolved organic matter (DOM). Yet, many rivers are dammed or run into lakes, and ther ...

Warming of lowland Polish lakes under future climate change scenarios and consequences for ice cover and mixing dynamics

Sebastiano Piccolroaz

Study region: The study region comprises 25 lowland Polish lakes in the northern part of the country. The studied lakes provide domestic, industrial and agricultural water supply, and are major attractions for tourism, thus playing a significant role in th ...

Bio-Hybrid Systems for Ecosystem Level Effects

Francesco Mondada, Robert Thomas Edmund Mills, Jean-Louis Deneubourg, Robert Matthew Mills, Rafael Botner Barmak, Matthieu Jean-Michel Philippe Broisin

In a time marked by ecological decay and by the perspective of a severe backlash of this ecosystem decay and climate devastation onto human society, bold moves that employ novel technology to counteract this decline are required. We present a novel concept ...
