Microbiological characterization of 3193 French dwellings of Elfe cohort children

Although exposure to indoor microorganisms in early life has already been associated with respiratory illness or allergy protection, only a few studies have performed standardized samplings and specific microbial analysis. Moreover, most do not target the ...

Optimizing a remotely sensed proxy for plankton biomass in Lake Kivu

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Allyn Christine Knox

Many regions of the world, including inland lakes, present with suboptimal conditions for the remotely sensed retrieval of optical signals, thus challenging the limits of available satellite data-processing tools, such as atmospheric correction models (ACM ...

Bioavailability of inorganic nanoparticles to planktonic bacteria and aquatic microalgae in freshwater

Paul Bowen, Nadia Rachel Von Moos

Over the past few years, engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) have penetrated nearly every sector of modern life and their broad-scale use is steadily and rapidly increasing. The (expected) elevated levels of ENMs in the environment raise concerns with regard t ...

The in situ light microenvironment of corals

Michael Kühl

We used a novel diver-operated microsensor system to collect in situ spectrally resolved light fields on corals with a micrometer spatial resolution. The light microenvironment differed between polyp and coenosarc tissues with scalar irradiance (400-700 nm ...

Temperature stress induces notochord abnormalities and heat shock proteins expression in larval green sturgeon (Acipenser medirostris Ayres 1854)

The effects of thermal stress on survival, development and heat shock protein (hsp) expression of green sturgeon (GS) yolk-sac larvae, from hatching through yolk depletion were investigated to provide insight into effects of highly altered natural river hy ...

Effects of oligotrophication on primary production in peri-alpine lakes

Alfred Johny Wüest

During the second half of the 20th century untreated sewage released from housing and industry into natural waters led to a degradation of many freshwater lakes and reservoirs worldwide. In order to mitigate eutrophication, wastewater treatment plants, inc ...

Mathematical analysis and numerical simulation of pattern formation under cross-diffusion

Ricardo Esteban Ruiz Baier

Cross-diffusion driven instabilities have gained a considerable attention in the field of population dynamics, mainly due to their ability to predict some important features in the study of spatial distribution of species in ecological systems. This paper ...

Biophysical controls on cluster dynamics and architectural differentiation of microbial biofilms in contrasting flow environments

Andrea Rinaldo, Tom Ian Battin, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Samir Suweis

Ecology, with a traditional focus on plants and animals, seeks to understand the mechanisms underlying structure and dynamics of communities. In microbial ecology, the focus is changing from planktonic communities to attached biofilms that dominate microbi ...

Hypolimnetic Oxygen Depletion in Eutrophic Lakes

Alfred Johny Wüest, Beat Mueller

The oxygen-consuming processes in the hypolimnia of freshwater lakes leading to deep-water anoxia are still not well understood, thereby constraining suitable management concepts. This study presents data obtained from 11 eutrophic lakes and suggests a mod ...

Influence of diatoms on copepod reproduction. I. Field and laboratory observations related to Calanus helgolandicus egg production

ABSTRACT: Egg production rates (EPR) by Calanus helgolandicus females were investigated with specimens sampled weekly, from April to November 2003 and from March to October 2004, at a station located in the English Channel off Roscoff. Comparison of result ...
