Non-flow periods in fluvial ecosystems are a global phenomenon. Streambed drying and rewetting by sporadic rainfalls could drive considerable changes the microbial communities that govern stream nitrogen (N) availability at different temporal spatial scales. We performed microcosm-based experiment to investigate how dry period duration (DPD) (0, 3, 6, 9 weeks) magnitude of rainfall 4, 21 mm applied end period) affected stocks N riverbed sediments, ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) archaea...
River water quality monitoring at limited temporal resolution can lead to imprecise and inaccurate classification of physicochemical status due sampling error. Bayesian inference allows for the quantification this uncertainty, which assist decision-making. However, implicit assumptions methods cause further uncertainty in quantification, so-called second-order uncertainty. In study, first time, we rigorously assessed common statistics (mean 95th percentile) based on sub-sampling...
Abstract The ecosystem function of vegetation to attenuate export nutrients is substantial importance for securing water quality. This at risk deterioration due an increasing large‐scale forest dieback under climate change. present study explores the response nitrogen (N) cycle a catchment in Bavarian Forest National Park, Germany, face severe bark beetle ( Ips typographus Linnaeus) outbreak and resulting using top‐down statistical‐mechanistic modeling. Outbreaks killed dominant tree species...
We desire to know out of different motivations. According Aristotle, scientists can feel happy or eudaimon when they fulfill the final cause humans, reasoning, by providing knowledge. Freud argued that infants start learn in order distinguish between conditions them pain pleasure. want increase chances achieving desired outcomes and avoiding undesired our decisions understanding causalities events predicting future events. In Geoscientific contexts, we may understand nature satisfy desires...
The ecosystem function of vegetation to attenuate riverine export nutrients is substantial importance for securing water quality. This at risk deterioration due an increasing large-scale forest dieback under climate change. present study explores the response nitrogen (N) cycle a catchment in Bavarian Forest National Park, Germany, face severe bark beetle () outbreak and resulting dieback. Outbreaks killed dominant tree species Norway spruce up 55 % area. A Bayesian hierarchical model that...
