  1. 6. Factors controlling pelagic communities of freshwater ciliates and heliozoans

    Författare :Ulrika Stensdotter-Blomberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; ciliates; heliozoans; freshwater; nutrients; predation; microbial food web; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; limnologi; Limnology;

    Sammanfattning : Ciliate diversity and seasonal succession were studied during two years in oligotrophic,acidic Lake Njupfatet. Maximum ciliate abundance occurred shortly after ice-out. After thefirst year, the lake was neutralised by liming. Liming caused changes in the bacterioplanktonand phytoplankton communities, but no change in ciliate diversity. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Productivity and carbon transfer in pelagic food webs in response to carbon, nutrients and light

    Författare :Carolyn Faithfull; Ann-Kristin Bergström; Tobias Vrede; Kathryn Cottingham; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bacterial production; phytoplankton production; mesocosms; food webs; carbon; nutrients; light; Terrestrial; freshwater and marine ecology; Terrestrisk; limnisk och marin ekologi; limnologi; Limnology;

    Sammanfattning : Some of the major problems we face today are human induced changes to the nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and carbon (C) cycles. Predicted increases in rainfall and temperature due to climate change, may also increase dissolved organic matter (DOM) inflows to freshwater ecosystems in the boreal zone. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Substrate control of community composition and functional adaptation in marine bacterioplankton

    Författare :Julie Dinasquet; Lasse Riemann; Edward F. DeLong; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; marine microbial ecology; bacterioplankton; community composition; functional adaptation; dissolved organic carbon; bottom-up and top down factors; ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi; food-webs; Southern-Ocean; Antarctica; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology; Akvatisk ekologi; Aquatic Ecology;

    Sammanfattning : A drop of sea-water is teeming with a million of bacteria, on which pelagic food-webs and biogeochemical cycles depend. These bacteria thrive on a wide range of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) compounds produced through biotic and abiotic processes. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Anoxic degradation of organic matter in lakes : implications for carbon cycling and aquatic food webs

    Författare :David Bastviken; Joseph M Gasol; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Ekonsystem i vatten; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN;

    Sammanfattning : Considerable evidence from laboratory studies and marine environments suggests that degradation of organic matter (OM) is restricted under anoxic conditions compared to when molecular oxygen (O2) is present. However, other studies contradict this view since they found similar OM degradation rates and bacterial growth rates under both oxic and anoxic conditions in aquatic environments. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Coastal microbial respiration in a climate change perspective

    Författare :Anna Nydahl; Johan Wikner; Kristina Sundbäck; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biology; biologi;

    Sammanfattning : In a climate change perspective increased precipitation and temperature are expected which should influence the coastal microbial food web. Precipitation will have a strong impact on river flow and thereby increase the carbon input to the coastal zone as well as lowering the marine salinity by dilution with freshwater. LÄS MER
