Velocities, Residence Times, Tracer Breakthroughs in a Vegetated Lysimeter: A Multitracer Experiment

Andrea Rinaldo, Michaël Bensimon, Paolo Benettin, Pierre Claude Jean Queloz

Flow velocities, residence times, and tracer breakthroughs at the lysimeter scale are affected by matrix properties and preferential flow. Despite their relevance to transport processes, however, the relative timing of preferential flow, and its link to tr ...

Significance testing testate amoeba water table reconstructions

Edward Mitchell, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Mariusz Lamentowicz

Transfer functions are valuable tools in palaeoecology, but their output may not always be meaningful. A recently-developed statistical test ('randomTF') offers the potential to distinguish among reconstructions which are more likely to be useful, and thos ...

UNDERSTANDING THE EXTENT OF FOOD WEB ALTERATIONS ON AQUATIC ECOSYSTEM STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION REQUIRES CAREFUL CONSIDERATION OF SCALE

Janine Rüegg

Species declines due to changing environmental conditions or anthropogenic influences such as fisheries harvest as well as species introductions probably have consequences beyond the species by also altering their food webs. The scope of the effect on the ...

Flood frequency matters: Why climate change degrades deep-water quality of peri-alpine lakes

Alfred Johny Wüest

Sediment-laden riverine floods transport large quantities of dissolved oxygen into the receiving deep layers of lakes. Hence, the water quality of deep lakes is strongly influenced by the frequency of riverine floods. Although flood frequency reflects clim ...

Habitat type as strongest predictor of the body size distribution of Chydorus sphaericus (O. F. Muller) in small water bodies

Vincent Eric Jules Jassey

Chydorus sphaericus, a cladoceran characterized by a wide range of distribution, is often numerous in various water habitats. Its body size is a consequence of environmental characteristics and physiology. The aim of the study focused on the distribution o ...

Plant functional diversity drives niche-size-structure of dominant microbial consumers along a poor to extremely rich fen gradient

Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Mariusz Lamentowicz, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek

Plant community composition is recognized more and more for playing an important role in ecosystem processes, such as C cycling. In particular, plant functional type (PFT) composition seems to have a key regulatory role, yet the underlying mechanisms in ...

Long-term organic carbon turnover rates in natural and semi-natural topsoils

Robert Thomas Edmund Mills

We combined published and new radiocarbon and ancillary data for uncultivated topsoils (typically 15 cm depth), to make two databases, one for the United Kingdom (133 sites), and one global (114 sites). Forest topsoils are significantly higher in radiocarb ...

Impacts of hydrodynamics and benthic communities on phytoplankton distributions in a large, dreissenid-colonized lake (Lake Simcoe, Ontario, Canada)

Damien Bouffard

We quantified the vertical and horizontal variation of chlorophyll a (Chl-a) to test how benthic filter feeders (dreissenid mussels), rooted macrophytes, and hydrodynamics influence phytoplankton distributions in a large lake (Lake Simcoe, Canada). Water c ...

Characterization of fulvic acid fractions of dissolved organic matter during ice-out in a hyper-eutrophic, coastal pond in Antarctica

Jennifer Guerard

Dissolved humic material (HDOM) is ubiquitous to all natural waters and its source material influences its chemical structure, reactivity, and bioavailability. While terrestrially derived HDOM reference materials distributed by the International Humic Subs ...

A comparison between remotely-sensed and modelled surface soil moisture (and frozen status) at high latitudes

Isabelle Amandine Gouttevin

In this study, the combined surface status and surface soil moisture products retrieved by the ASCAT sensor within the ESA-DUE Permafrost project are compared to the hydrological outputs of the land surface model ORCHIDEE over Northern Eurasia. The objecti ...
