Background: Microbes, collectively bacteria, fungi, archaea, and viruses, are the organisms
that are widely distributed on earth, with a huge number of individuals and high diversity of …

Habitats with intermittent flooding, such as paddy soils, are crucial reservoirs in the global
carbon pool; however, the effect of phage–host interactions on the biogeochemical cycling …

The melting of the cryosphere is among the most conspicuous consequences of climate
change, with impacts on microbial life and related biogeochemistry. However, we are …

In glacier-fed streams, ecological windows of opportunity allow complex microbial biofilms to
develop and transiently form the basis of the food web, thereby controlling key ecosystem …

The rapid melting of mountain glaciers and the vanishing of their streams is emblematic of
climate change,. Glacier-fed streams (GFSs) are cold, oligotrophic and unstable ecosystems …

Microbial life in glacier-fed streams (GFSs) is dominated by benthic biofilms which fulfill
critical ecosystem processes. However, it remains unclear how the bacterial communities of …

Glacier shrinkage opens new proglacial terrain with pronounced environmental gradients
along longitudinal and lateral chronosequences. Despite the environmental harshness of …

The shrinking of glaciers is among the most iconic consequences of climate change. Despite
this, the downstream consequences for ecosystem processes and related microbiome …

High‐mountain streams are particularly vulnerable to climate change because they
intimately interface with the cryosphere. As glaciers shrink and snowpack diminishes …

Although the management of microbes in drinking water is of paramount importance for
public health, there remain challenges in comprehensively examining pathogenic bacteria …
