In this overview (introductory article to a special issue including 14 papers), we consider all
main types of natural and artificial inland freshwater habitas (fwh). For each type, we identify …

Worldwide development of cyanobacterial blooms has significantly increased in marine and
continental waters in the last century due to water eutrophication. This phenomenon is …

1. This review summarises knowledge on the ecology, toxin production, and impacts of toxic
freshwater benthic cyanobacterial proliferations. It documents monitoring, management, and …

Antarctica is a continent locked in ice, with almost 99.7% of current terrain covered by
permanent ice and snow, and clear evidence that, as recently as the Last Glacial Maximum …

Cyanobacteria are an enormously diverse group of prokaryotes whose adaptive capacity
along with the ability to tolerate extreme conditions makes them omnipresent. They are …

Perennially cold habitats are diminishing as a result of climate change; however, little is
known of the diversity or biogeography of microbes that thrive in such environments. Here …

Cyanobacteria are ubiquitous photosynthetic micro-organisms forming blooms and scums in
surface water; among them some species can produce cyanotoxins giving rise to some …

Cyanobacteria, the first oxygen-evolving group of photosynthetic Gram-negative
prokaryotes, are unique among microbial world and grow in diverse habitats. Cyanobacteria …

Antarctica is arguably the world's most important continent for influencing the Earth's climate
and ocean ecosystem function. The unique physico-chemical properties of the Southern …

Recent analyses of Antarctic terrestrial biodiversity data, in combination with molecular
biological studies, have created a new paradigm that long-term persistence and regional …
