This study aimed to assess the influence of nutrient enrichment on the development of
microalgal biofilm on concrete and PVC cubes. Three mesocosms were utilized to create a …

Microphytobenthos (MPB) resuspension is a key mechanism in the transfer of organic matter
from productive intertidal mudflats to terrestrial and marine systems. In this study, we infer on …

The study focus on the description of several MISS as erosional pockets and remnants,
flipped-over edges, and large microbial deformation structures as roll-ups, folds and gas …

Knowledge about the diversity and spatiotemporal variability of epiphytic diatom
communities in estuarine meadows has great relevance for coastal ecology and, thus …

Microbial mats are complex microecosystems that have shown promise as possible green
filters to remediate polluted seawater. This usage would possibly require changing the …

Abstract The Salitral de La Vidriera (SDV; 38° 44′ S, 62° 34′ W) once occupied the
innermost section of a funnel-shaped estuary before its isolation due to sea level drop∼ …

Microbial mats have a special role in the removal of metals in marine environment. This
study aimed to experimentally determine the efficiency of Cr removal from seawater by …

The term benthos applies to the organisms that inhabit ocean bottoms. Benthos distribution
is controlled by a combination of factors such as sediment granulometry, dissolved O2, OM …

The epi-sedimentary microbial community of a shallow oxbow lake in the Colorado River
floodplain was studied along a transect running from its concave margin to the center …

The influence of microphytobenthic community on the composition of sedimentary organic
matter was evaluated in two Bahía Blanca estuary microhabitats contrasting in vegetation …
