The main soil physical-chemical features, the concentrations of a set pollutants, and microbiota linked to penguin rookeries have been studied in 10 selected sites located at South Shetland Islands Antarctic Peninsula (Maritime Antarctica). This study aims test hypothesis that biotransport by penguins increases concentration especially heavy metals, soils, alters its microbiota. Our results show do transport certain chemical elements thus cause accumulation land areas through their excreta....
<title>Abstract</title> Saline lakes are hypersensitive to changes in their water balance and therefore show amplified responses climatic land-use catchment. However, despite the resulting, often dramatic ecological consequences, saline rank low on policy agendas as they assumed support few ecosystem services levels of biodiversity. Here, we challenge this view evaluate threatened species 84 distributed across globe. We found that harbour not only aquatic biota but also a diverse range...
Wetlands are among the most biologically active ecosystems on Earth, playing an important role in global carbon cycle. Methane production wetlands, resulting from anaerobic respiration of organic matter, accounts for part natural sources methane. In this work, we have evaluated methane release rates saline shallow lakes located Central Spain, some which maintain conditions, whereas others hydrologically altered, with lowered salinity, or even presenting trophic alterations. We used sediment...
Deltaic wetlands are highly productive ecosystems, which characteristically can act as C-sinks. However, they among the most threatened being very vulnerable to global change, and require special attention towards its conservation. Knowing their climate change mitigating potential, conservation measures should also be oriented with a climatic approach, strengthen regulatory services. In this work we studied carbon biogeochemistry specific relevance of certain microbial guilds on metabolisms...
Abstract Microbes play a critical role in plant litter decomposition and influence the fate of carbon rivers riparian zones. When decomposing low‐nutrient litter, microbes acquire nitrogen (N) phosphorus (P) from environment (i.e., nutrient immobilization), this process is potentially sensitive to loading changing climate. Nonetheless, environmental controls on immobilization are poorly understood because rates also influenced by chemistry, which coupled same factors. Here we used...
Permanent freshwater and brackish marshes are the typical wetland type of Mediterranean Spanish coast. Historically, alterations to original morphological hydrological characteristics some these ecosystems have increased their trophic status, which could influence carbon (C) balance, while other remain close natural condition. In this work, main processes related C cycle were studied in several coastal with different degrees alteration sites restored managed ways. Carbon associated...
Constructed wetlands are commonly used for sewage treatment. However, as the natural processes operate, these artificial ecosystems can also be to enhance equalization of water features those receiving environments, thus reducing impacts treated on systems. Here, we studied, by a year-round survey, simultaneous and separated operation two subsurface that were tertiary treatment naturalization wastewaters had already been in waste plant (WWTP). These operating serially, with first wetland...
