Cyanobacterial blooms are becoming more common in freshwater systems, causing
ecological degradation and human health risks through exposure to cyanotoxins. The role of …

In aquatic ecosystems, phytoplankton is an important component of biodiversity. Although
much is already known about the main climate change agents impacting phytoplankton, it is …

Diatoms account for up to 50% of marine primary production and are considered to be key
players in the biological carbon pump. Ocean acidification (OA) is expected to affect diatoms …

Cyanobacterial harmful algal bloom (CyanoHAB) proliferation is a global problem impacting
ecosystem and human health. Western Lake Erie (WLE) typically endures two highly toxic …

Haze particles as a key air pollutant contain high level of toxins, which were hypothesized to
inhibit phytoplankton growth when deposited to the ocean, and thus indirectly affect the …

Human population density, and related urbanization, is predicted to increase along
coastlines worldwide. Varied land uses will likely influence nutrient delivery, mainly nitrogen …

Abstract The Ria Formosa coastal lagoon is a highly productive shallow ecosystem in
southern Portugal, subjected to nutrient inputs from anthropogenic and natural sources …

Abstract The Ria Formosa coastal lagoon (southern Portugal) is a highly productive and
valuable temperate ecosystem, subjected to strong anthropogenic impacts and highly …

Abstract The Ria Formosa coastal lagoon is one of the most important and vulnerable
ecosystems in Portugal, and it is subjected to strong anthropogenic pressures and natural …

Abstract Changes in temperature and CO 2 are typically associated with climate change, but
they also act on shorter time scales, leading to alterations in phytoplankton physiology and …
