Oxygen consumption in seasonally stratified lakes decreases only below a marginal phosphorus threshold

Alfred Johny Wüest, Robert Vincent Schwefel

Areal oxygen (O-2) consumption in deeper layers of stratified lakes and reservoirs depends on the amount of settling organic matter. As phosphorus (P) limits primary production in most lakes, protective and remediation efforts often seek to reduce P input. ...

A combined hydrothermal gasification - solid oxide fuel cell system for sustainable production of algal biomass and energy

François Maréchal, Jan Van Herle, Christian Ludwig, Shivom Sharma, Hossein Madi

Hydrothermal gasification (HTG) is a promising technology that allows the recovery of nutrients from wet biomass with simultaneous production of an energy-rich gas. In this work, wastewater effluent (leachate) obtained from a composter sanitary system oper ...

Community-Level Responses to Iron Availability in Open Ocean Plankton Ecosystems

Anna Carratala Ripolles

Predicting responses of plankton to variations in essential nutrients is hampered by limited in situ measurements, a poor understanding of community composition, and the lack of reference gene catalogs for key taxa. Iron is a key driver of plankton dynamic ...

Bio-optical properties and radiative energy budgets in fed and unfed scleractinian corals (Pocillopora sp.) during thermal bleaching

Niclas Heidelberg Lyndby, Michael Kühl

Corals live in symbiosis with algal dinoflagellates, which can achieve outstanding photosynthetic energy efficiencies in hospite approaching theoretical limits. However, how such photosynthetic efficiency varies with environmental stress remains poorly kno ...

Elevated CO2 Leads to Enhanced Photosynthesis but Decreased Growth in Early Life Stages of Reef Building Coralline Algae

Niclas Heidelberg Lyndby, Michael Kühl

Crustose coralline algae (CCA) are key organisms in coral reef ecosystems, where they contribute to reef building and substrate stabilization. While ocean acidification due to increasing CO2 can affect the biology, physiology and ecology of fully developed ...

Photoinduced disinfection in sunlit natural waters: Measurement of the second order inactivation rate constants between E-coli and photogenerated transient species

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis, Jean Arnaud Troyon

This work uncovers the implications of the estimation of exogenous inactivation rates for E. coli after the initial lag phase, and presents a strategy for the determination of the second-order inactivation rate constants (k2nd) of these bacteria with relev ...

Bacteria-induced mixing in natural waters

Alfred Johny Wüest, Oscar Rodrigo Sepúlveda Steiner, Talia Ekin Tokyay Sinha

Swimming organisms can enhance mixing in their natural environments by creating eddies in their wake and by dragging water along. However, these mixing mechanisms are inefficient for microorganisms, because swimming-induced variations in velocity, temperat ...

Sediment resuspension mechanisms and their contributions to high-turbidity events in a large lake

Damien Bouffard

High-resolution field data, collected during April to October of 2008–2009, were analyzed to investigate the quantitative contribution of sediment resuspension to high-turbidity events in central Lake Erie. Resuspension events were distinguished within hig ...
