Cladophoraspp. (Chlorophyta) modulate environment and create a habitat for microalgae in hypersaline waters

Aleksandr Prazukin et al.

Summary: The study found that Cladophora forms floating and benthic mats in Crimean hypersaline lakes and lagoons, with a diverse range of microalgae species. There were differences in species composition between the floating and benthic mats. The abundance and biomass of microalgae on Cladophora varied significantly, with microalgae accounting for a considerable proportion of Cladophora's mass.

Anthropogenic activities destabilized riverine bacterial communities by increasing synchrony between taxa

Lemian Liu et al.

Summary: The study found that anthropogenic activities in the midstream and downstream areas of Xiyuan River increased the instability of bacterial communities, mainly due to the increased synchrony between taxa. Additionally, bacteria tolerant to anthropogenic activities and their linked taxa formed large and strong positive modules, further destabilizing the communities. These results provide new insights into how anthropogenic activities alter riverine microbial communities.

Salt to conserve: a review on the ecology and preservation of hypersaline ecosystems

Mattia Sacco et al.

Summary: This article explores the ecological dynamics of hypersaline ecosystems, addressing unique features of hypersaline lakes from biological and geochemical perspectives, the biota inhabiting these systems and their adaptations, strategies for protecting biodiversity, and scientific tools for future preservation efforts. It sheds light on the understudied ecosystems and advocates for the importance of conserving hypersaline lakes for their unique biodiversity.

Spatial and temporal variability of microphytobenthos in a marine hypersaline lake (Crimea): Are there some general patterns?

Nickolai Shadrin et al.

Summary: Research on microphytobenthos in a Crimean closed hypersaline lagoon revealed a diverse composition, with dominant species including Bacillariophyta, Haptophyta, Miozoa, and Cyanobacteria. Bacillariophyta species were found to contribute significantly to the overall species richness, with varying abundance levels observed in different habitats within the lagoon. Temporal variability in total microalgae abundance was higher than spatial variability, highlighting the importance of chance factors in determining microphytobenthos structure.
