Glacier ecosystems are teeming with life on, beneath, and to a lesser degree, within their icy
masses. This conclusion largely stems from polar research, with less attention paid to …

Studies of antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) have mainly originated from anthropic-
influenced environments, with limited information from pristine environments. Remote cold …

Community assembly processes are important in structuring aquatic microbial communities;
however, the influence of these processes on the dynamics of bacterial communities in …

Alpine streams are dynamic habitats harboring substantial biodiversity across small spatial
extents. The diversity of alpine stream biota is largely reflective of environmental …

Microbial communities in the glacier forefield of Styggedalsbreen, Norway, were
investigated along a chronosequence from newly exposed soil to vegetated soils using next …

Current models predict increases in High Arctic temperatures and precipitation that will have
profound impacts on the Arctic hydrological cycle, including enhanced glacial melt and …

Meltwater streams connect the glacial cryosphere with downstream ecosystems. Dissolved
and particulate matter exported from glacial ecosystems originates from contrasting …

Comprehensive knowledge of bacterial ecology mainly in supraglacial habitats is pivotal
particularly at the frontier of accelerated glacier retreat. In this study, bacterial diversity and …

Mountain glacier shrinkage represents a major effect of the current global warming and 80–
100% of the Alpine glaciers are predicted to vanish within the next few decades. As the …

This study reports stable and radiogenic strontium isotope behaviour in the dissolved load
and suspended sediments from the subglacial outflow of the Lemon Creek glacier (Juneau …
