Freshwater lake eutrophication is a global concern causing adverse effects on aquatic
ecosystems. The degradation of lake aquatic–terrestrial ecotones, which are the transitional …

Microbial communities play a vital role in urban river biogeochemical cycles. However, the
seasonal variations in microbial community characteristics, particularly phylogenetic group …

Soil microbial communities are essential for ensuring forest health, however, the influences
of global change on soil microbial communities and their ecosystem functions remain …

Owing to its sparse vegetation and low soil organic carbon (SOC) content, the Loess Plateau
is one of the regions with the highest carbon (C) sequestration potential [1]. Vegetation …

Floodplains are hotspots for biodiversity research and conservation worldwide. Hydrological
disturbances can profoundly influence the ecological processes and functions of floodplain …

Riverine microorganisms are major players in driving biogeochemical cycling. The dynamics
of hydrological conditions have been observed to influence the microbial communities in …

Given their ecological importance, bioindicators are used for the assessment of the health of
river ecosystems. This study explored the fungal compositions and the potential of fungal …

Hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD), a persistent halogenated organic pollutant, has been
commonly detected in river sediments, especially in riparian zones, but strategies for …

Coastal terrestrial-aquatic interfaces (TAIs) are crucial contributors to global biogeochemical
cycles and carbon exchange. The soil carbon dioxide (CO 2) efflux in these transition zones …

Abstract Background and Aims Critical peatland functions are intricately linked to
biogeochemical processes mediated by soil microbes. The belowground microbial activities …
