Collateral effects of microplastic pollution on aquatic microorganisms: An ecological perspective
(2018-12-05)
Microplastics (MP) provide a unique and extensive surface for microbial colonization in aquatic ecosystems. The formation of microorganism-microplastic complexes, such as biofilms, maximizes the degradation of organic ...

Biodiversity analyses: are aquatic ecologists doing any better and differently than terrestrial ecologists?
(Springer, 2015-05-01)
Species richness is a key variable in biodiversity analyses, being often analyzed as either a response or an explanatory variable. We addressed whether biodiversity studies conducted in aquatic habitats (including both ...
Predicting Trace Metal Exposure in Aquatic Ecosystems: Evaluating DGT as a Biomonitoring Tool
(2018-04-26)
Exposure to trace metals is a leading factor associated with the development of non-communicable diseases. Aquatic ecosystems are not only effective agents of trace metal dispersion but are also at risk of contaminant ...
Validation of an index of biological integrity based on aquatic macroinvertebrates assemblages in two subtropical basins of central MexicoValidation of an index of biological integrity based on aquatic macroinvertebrates assemblages in two sub-tropical basins of central Mexico

It is about time: genetic variation in the timing of leaf-litter inputs influences aquatic ecosystems
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2017-02)
Phenology, or the timing of life cycle events, is a key trait of organisms that has significance for how communities are assembled and ecosystems function. Although variation in phenology in plants has received increased ...
The contrasting roles of aquatic fungi and oomycetes in the degradation and transformation of polymeric organic matter
(2019)
Studies on the ecological role of fungi and, to a lesser extent, oomycetes, are receiving increasing attention, mainly due to their participation in the cycling of organic matter in aquatic ecosystems. To unravel their ...
Metabolic scaling regularity in aquatic ecosystems
(CICIMAR Oceánides, 2012)
We tested the hypothesis that ecosystem metabolism follows a quarter power scaling relation, analogous to organisms. Logarithm of Biomass/Production (B/P) to Trophic Level (TL) relationship was estimated to 98 trophic ...
Taxonomical and functional diversity of Saprolegniales in Anzali lagoon, Iran
(2020)
Studies on the diversity, distribution and ecological role of Saprolegniales (Oomycota) in freshwater ecosystems are currently receiving attention due to a greater understanding of their role in carbon cycling in various ...
