Rapid isotopic exchange in mineralogically unaltered coral skeletons

Anders Meibom, Arthur Adams, Deyanira Graciela Cisneros Lazaro

Fossil coral skeletons that retain their original aragonitic mineralogy are generally considered diagenetically unaltered and reliable paleoenvironmental archives. We investigated whether oxygen isotope exchange can occur between these skeletons and ambien ...

Elemental cryo-imaging reveals SOS1-dependent vacuolar sodium accumulation

Cristina Martin Olmos, Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Priya Ramakrishna

Increasing soil salinity causes significant crop losses globally; therefore, understanding plant responses to salt (sodium) stress is of high importance. Plants avoid sodium toxicity through subcellular compartmentation by intricate processes involving a h ...

Host-derived organic acids enable gut colonization of the honey bee symbiont Snodgrassella alvi

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig

Diverse bacteria can colonize the animal gut using dietary nutrients or by engaging in microbial crossfeeding interactions. Less is known about the role of host-derived nutrients in enabling gut bacterial colonization. Here we examined metabolic interactio ...

Fossil biocalcite remains open to isotopic exchange with seawater for tens of millions of years

Cristina Martin Olmos, Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski, Arthur Adams, Deyanira Graciela Cisneros Lazaro

Fossilized remains of marine calcifiers constitute the physical basis for reconstructions of both deep ocean and sea-surface temperatures going back millions of years, but paleoclimate records derived from their isotope and trace-element chemistry can be b ...

Post-mortem recrystallization of biogenic amorphous calcium carbonate guided by the inherited macromolecular framework

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski

In contrast to abiotically formed carbonates, biogenetic carbonates have been observed to be nanocomposite, organo-mineral structures, the basic build-blocks of which are particles of quasi-uniform size (10–100 nm) organized into complex higher-order hiera ...

Host starvation and in hospite degradation of algal symbionts shape the heat stress response of the Cassiopea-Symbiodiniaceae symbiosis

Cristina Martin Olmos, Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Gaëlle Delphine Toullec, Nils Rädecker, Claudia Isabella Pogoreutz, Guilhem Maurice Louis Banc-Prandi

Background
Global warming is causing large-scale disruption of cnidarian-Symbiodiniaceae symbioses fundamental to major marine ecosystems, such as coral reefs. However, the mechanisms by which heat stress perturbs these symbiotic partnership ...

Oxygen isotope fractionation during amorphous to crystalline calcium carbonate transformation at varying relative humidity and temperature

Anders Meibom, Arthur Adams

Crystalline calcium carbonate isotope compositions have been widely used to reconstruct past environments. However, if their isotopic compositions are modified because of crystallization from an amorphous precursor, their reliability as paleo-geochemical p ...

Symbiotic nutrient exchange enhances the long-term survival of cassiosomes, the autonomous stinging-cell structures of Cassiopea

Cristina Martin Olmos, Anders Meibom, Niclas Heidelberg Lyndby, Gaëlle Delphine Toullec, Nils Rädecker, Claudia Isabella Pogoreutz, Guilhem Maurice Louis Banc-Prandi

Medusae of the widely distributed upside-down jellyfish Cassiopea release autonomous, mobile stinging structures. These so-called cassiosomes play a role in predator defense and prey capture, and are major contributors to “contactless” stinging incidents i ...

Rapid grain boundary diffusion in foraminifera tests biases paleotemperature records

Lukas Baumgartner, Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski, Arthur Adams, Deyanira Graciela Cisneros Lazaro, Jinming Guo

The paleoseawater temperature record from the oxygen isotope compositions of fossil foraminifera tests may be biased by up to about 1 degrees C due to grain-boundary diffusion alone, according to isotope exchange experiments on foraminifera tests. The oxyg ...

Coupled carbon and nitrogen cycling regulates the cnidarian–algal symbiosis

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Nils Rädecker

Efficient nutrient recycling underpins the ecological success of cnidarian-algal symbioses in oligotrophic waters. In these symbioses, nitrogen limitation restricts the growth of algal endosymbionts in hospite and stimulates their release of photosynthates ...

Non-invasive investigation of the morphology and optical properties of the upside-down jellyfish Cassiopea with optical coherence tomography

Anders Meibom, Sandrine Denise Françoise Bessette, Niclas Heidelberg Lyndby, Michael Kühl

The jellyfish Cassiopea largely cover their carbon demand via photosynthates produced by microalgal endosymbionts, but how holobiont morphology and tissue optical properties affect the light microclimate and symbiont photosynthesis in Cassiopea remain unex ...
