Bioindication has become an indispensable part of water quality monitoring in most
countries of the world, with the presence and abundance of bioindicator taxa, mostly …

In recent years, metabolomics has emerged as a pivotal approach for the holistic analysis of
metabolites in biological systems. The rapid progress in analytical equipment, coupled to the …

Microbes regulate the composition and turnover of organic matter. Here we developed a
framework called Energy-Diversity-Trait integrative Analysis to quantify how dissolved …

Plastic debris widely pollutes freshwaters. Abiotic and biotic degradation of plastics releases
carbon-based substrates that are available for heterotrophic growth, but little is known about …

Microorganisms in rivers indeed play a crucial role in nutrient cycling within aquatic
ecosystems. Understanding the assembly mechanisms of bacterial communities in river …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is recognized for its importance in freshwater ecosystems,
but historical reliance on DOM quantity rather than indicators of DOM composition has led to …

Lakes are active components of the global carbon cycle and host a range of processes that
degrade and modify dissolved organic matter (DOM). Through the degradation of DOM …

Soil organic matter (SOM) is comprised of a diverse array of reactive carbon molecules,
including hydrophilic and hydrophobic compounds, that impact rates of SOM formation and …

Climate change induced shifts in treeline position, both towards higher altitudes and
latitudes induce changes in soil organic matter. Eventually, soil organic matter is transported …

Although the impact of land conversion on carbon mineralization in paddy soils has received
increasing attention, the coupled roles of soil microdiversity and chemodiversity in these …
