Phytoplankton in extreme environments: importance and consequences of habitat permanency
J Padisak, L Naselli-Flores - Hydrobiologia, 2021 - Springer
There is hardly any sunshine exposed surface on this Earth, be it water or terrain, which
would not support some biota. Still, many habitats offer harsh conditions requiring …

Environmental heterogeneity determines the ecological processes that govern bacterial metacommunity assembly in a floodplain river system
How diversity is structured has been a central goal of microbial ecology. In freshwater
ecosystems, selection has been found to be the main driver shaping bacterial communities …

Unravelling the role of determinism and stochasticity in structuring the phytoplanktonic metacommunity of the Paraná River floodplain
One of the ongoing debates around metacommunity ecology is to what extent stochastic and
deterministic processes act on community assembly. We explored the influence of both …

From historical backgrounds towards the functional classification of river phytoplankton sensu Colin S. Reynolds: what future merits the approach may hold?
River phytoplankton has been studied to understand its occurrence and composition since
the end of the nineteenth century. Later, pioneers addressed mechanisms that affected river …
