The characterization of variations in riverine microbiota that stem from contaminant sources
and transport modes is important for understanding biogeochemical processes. However …

Background Ferromanganese nodule-bearing deep-sea sediments cover vast areas of the
ocean floor, representing a distinctive habitat in the abyss. These sediments harbor unique …

Mangrove aquatic ecosystems receive substantial nitrogen (N) inputs from both land and
sea, playing critical roles in modulating coastal N fluxes. The microbially-mediated …

The formation of anammox-hydroxyapatite (HAP) coupled granules has been shown to be
an approach to efficient nitrogen removal and phosphorus recovery in the anammox EGSB …

Tidal hydrodynamics drive the groundwater-seawater exchange and shifts in microbiota
structure in the coastal zone. However, how the coastal water microbiota structure and …

Common culturing techniques and priorities bias our discovery towards specific traits that
may not be representative of microbial diversity in nature. So far, these biases have not been …

River-lake confluences are key zones in the river-lake network, essential for managing
contaminant transport and transformation. However, the role of biogeochemical …

The use of biodegradable plastics is constantly raising, increasing the likeliness for these
polymers to end up in the environment. Environmental applications foreseeing the …

Desert wetlands are evolving into deserts by groundwater table (GWT) drawdown. However,
the changes in microbial communities and functions during the GWT drawdown are unclear …

Hydrodynamic processes play a crucial role in driving the transmission of sediments, likely
harboring diverse microbes and heterogeneous organic carbon (OC) in the ocean. Here we …
