Oxygen is one of the most crucial elements on earth and equally affects life and inorganic
redox processes. After its transition to water with moderate solubility and slow diffusion rates …

Aims We examined the effects of a mixture of contaminants found in agricultural watersheds
on the gut microbiota and physiology of both the freshwater mussel Lampsilis cardium, and …

The growth rate is a fundamental characteristic of bacterial species, determining its
contributions to the microbial community and carbon flow. High-throughput sequencing can …

Cyanobacterial blooms in lakes frequently display high spatial heterogeneity, which may
drive temporal changes in microbial community structure. Here we report on the spatial …

Abstract Tonle Sap Lake, the largest freshwater body in Southeast Asia, plays an important
role in lives and environment. The lake is reportedly under anthropogenic pressure and …

The recreational bait trade is a potential pathway for pathogen introduction and spread
when anglers dump bait shop sourced water into aquatic systems. Despite this possibility …

Background Fecal bacterial densities are proxy indicators of beach water quality, and beach
posting decisions are made based on Beach Action Value (BAV) exceedances for a beach …

The ability of microbial communities to respond to and degrade crude oil in marine
environments is well understood, yet fewer studies have examined freshwater environments …

Understanding the diversity of bacteria and E. coli levels at beaches is important for
managing health risks. This study compared temporal changes of the bacterial communities …

The geographical variation of denitrifying bacterial communities and water quality
parameters in urban lakes distributed across nine provinces in China were determined. The …
