Controls on terrestrial ecosystem processes: an historical perspective -- Species and biotic interactions as ecosystem drivers -- Aboveground-belowground interactions as drivers of ecosystem processes ...

By integrating experimental evidence across freshwater and marine systems, the study emphasizes that algae–microplastic interactions are not uniformly harmful but context-dependent, offering ...

An ecosystem is normally defined as a complex of all living (plants, animals, microorganisms) and non-living (soil, climate) components interacting as a functional unit in a certain area. Each ...

An ecosystem is an environment that includes soil, water, air, nutrients, sunlight, climate plus all of the organisms that live in that environment. An ecosystem is about interactions. The organisms ...

Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is a pervasive environmental stressor whose intensification, driven by stratospheric ozone fluctuations and climate change, poses considerable risks to fish and aquatic ...

This two-part blog post is adapted from a presentation held in December 2024. Presenters and authors: Sean Bertalot, student with Sarah Collins studying limnology and ecosystem ecology in Jackson Lake ...

Aquatic biology is a subdiscipline of biological sciences focused on the structure, function, and interactions of organisms inhabiting freshwater and marine environments. It examines physiological ...

Are alpine lakes uniquely sensitive to global change? High-elevation aquatic ecosystems are among the most vulnerable to climate change and other forms of disturbance, yet few long-term records offer ...

A series of wildfire experiments conducted at UC San Diego carry implications for aquatic ecosystems in areas such as the Sierra Nevada mountains. In devasting cases dotting the globe in recent years, ...

Most people assume that wildfire harms aquatic ecosystems and fisheries. But such assumptions are being challenged by new research. There is no doubt that under some conditions, especially immediately ...
