Water surface expansion of saline lakes usually causes the inundation of surrounding grassland, leading to the increase of terrestrial grass organic matter (OM) input to the lakes and the decrease of lake salinity. However, the influence of terrestrial grass OM input increase and salinity decrease on organic carbon mineralization and microbial community composition remains unknown in saline lakes. Here, microbial mineralization of terrestrial grass (Achnatherum splendens) OM at different quantity levels in lake sediments with different salinity was investigated by performing microcosm experiments. The results showed that the CO2 production rates increased with the increase of grass OM supply in the studied sediments with different salinity, which may be driven by certain microbial groups (e.g. Bacteroidota, Firmicutes, and Ascomycota). The increase of grass OM supply reduced the richness of prokaryotic community, which will decrease the size and complexity of the studied microbial networks, but increase the interaction between prokaryotic and fungal taxa. Taken together, our results suggest that the increase of terrestrial grass OM input caused by lake expansion would enhance the mineralization of organic carbon and affect the community composition and interactions of related microorganisms in lake sediments with different salinity.

A crude oil aggregation-forming, strictly anaerobic, Gram-stain-positive, spore-forming, rod-shaped, motile and mesophilic bacterium, named strain SH18-2, was isolated from marine sediment near Sado Island in the Sea of Japan. The temperature, salinity and pH ranges of this strain for the growth were 15-40 °C (optimum 35 °C), 0.5-6.

Mangrove wetlands are strategic locations for mitigating climate changes. In order to address the harm of rapid climate change to mangrove ecosystems, it is necessary to scientifically predict the fate of mangrove ecosystems, which can be achieved by reconstructing the development history of mangrove forests. This study analyzes the contribution of mangrove-derived organic matter (CMOM) from sediment core F in Phang Nga Province, Thailand by using the endmember mixing model based on stable organic carbon isotopes (δC) and C/N (molar) ratio.

Dredging in estuarine systems significantly impacts phytoplankton communities, with suspended particulate matter (SPM) and dissolved aluminum (Al) serving as indicators of disturbance intensity. This study assessed the effects of dredging in the São Marcos Estuarine Complex (SMEC), Brazil, over three distinct events (2015, 2017, 2020), involving varying sediment volumes and climatic influences. Prolonged dredging operations and increased sediment volumes led to a pronounced 43.

To assess the environmental status of an abandoned aquaculture and breeding area in the northeast coast of the Hainan Island, surface and well water, sediment and surface soils were sampled and analyzed for conventional physicochemical properties, heavy metals and antibiotics. Metagenome tests were also conducted to determine the composition and diversity of the microbial community in typical habitats. Affected by the discharge of wastewater from higher-place pond aquaculture, coastal freshwater rivers have undergone significant salinization, Cl and Na were as high as 4.

Ecological impacts of tire wear particles (TWPs) on microbial communities and biogeochemical cycles in freshwater remain largely unknown. Here, we conducted a microcosm experiment to investigate interactions between the overlying water and sediment without and with TWPs addition in a rural vs. urban lake system.
