Surface water and groundwater interactions in salt marshes and their impact on plant ecology and coastal biogeochemistry

Salt marshes are highly productive intertidal wetlands providing important ecological services for maintaining coastal biodiversity, buffering against oceanic storms, and acting as efficient carbon sinks. However, about half of these wetlands have been los ...

Active lithoautotrophic and methane-oxidizing microbial community in an anoxic, sub-zero, and hypersaline High Arctic spring

Ianina Altshuler

Lost Hammer Spring, located in the High Arctic of Nunavut, Canada, is one of the coldest and saltiest terrestrial springs discovered to date. It perennially discharges anoxic (

Shift in plant-soil interactions along a lakeshore hydrological gradient

Alexandre Buttler, Luca Bragazza, Mathieu Raymond Santonja, Wenjuan Feng

Wetlands occupy the transitional zone between aquatic and terrestrial systems. Hydrological conditions have significant influence on wetland plant communities and soil biogeochemistry. However, our knowledge about plant-soil interactions in wetlands along ...

Microbial-induced carbonate precipitation applicability with the methane hydrate-bearing layer microbe

Alexandra Clarà Saracho

Production of methane gas from the methane-hydrate-bearing layer below the deep-ocean floor is expected to be crucial in the future of energy resources worldwide. During the methane gas-production phase from the methane hydrate with the depressurisation me ...

Assessing the responses of Sphagnum micro-eukaryotes to climate changes using high throughput sequencing

Alexandre Buttler, Edward Mitchell, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Mariusz Lamentowicz, Enrique Lara

Current projections suggest that climate warming will be accompanied by more frequent and severe drought events. Peatlands store ca. one third of the world's soil organic carbon. Warming and drought may cause peatlands to become carbon sources through stim ...

Relationships between key functional traits of the waterlily Nuphar lutea and wetland nutrient content

Charles Pierre Roger Henriot

Little attention has been paid to how aquatic habitat characteristics affect the traits of plant species. Nuphar lutea (L.) Sm. is a keystone species distributed across temperate regions of Europe, northwest Africa and western Asia. Its apparently low phen ...

Exploring the Sources of Unexpected High Methane Concentrations and Fluxes From Alpine Headwater Streams

Amber Joy Ulseth, Sabine Flury McGinnis

The dynamics of methane generation and evasion from well-oxygenated, oligotrophic streams have been traditionally neglected. We estimated evasion of methane and assessed its sources and production pathways using a stable isotope approach in 16 oxygen-rich ...

Combining short-term manipulative experiments with long-term palaeoecological investigations at high resolution to assess the response of Sphagnum peatlands to drought, fire and warming

Alexandre Buttler, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Mariusz Lamentowicz

Northern hemisphere peatlands are substantial carbon stores. However, recent climate change and human impacts (e.g., drainage and atmospheric nutrient deposition) may trigger the emission of their stored carbon to the atmosphere. Biodiversity losses are al ...

A novel testate amoebae trait-based approach to infer environmental disturbance in Sphagnum peatlands

Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Mariusz Lamentowicz

Species' functional traits are closely related to ecosystem processes through evolutionary adaptation, and are thus directly connected to environmental changes. Species' traits are not commonly used in palaeoecology, even though they offer powerful advanta ...

Peatland vascular plant functional types affect methane dynamics by altering microbial community structure

Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek, Robert Thomas Edmund Mills

Peatlands are natural sources of atmospheric methane (CH4), an important greenhouse gas. It is established that peatland methane dynamics are controlled by both biotic and abiotic conditions, yet the interactive effect of these drivers is less studied and ...

Experimental warming interacts with soil moisture to discriminate plant responses in an ombrotrophic peatland

Alexandre Buttler, Pierre Rémi Mariotte, Edward Mitchell, Luca Bragazza, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Cédric Pochelon

QuestionA better understanding of the response of Sphagnum mosses and associated vascular plants to climate warming is relevant for predicting the carbon balance of peatlands in a warmer world. Open-top chambers (OTCs) have been used to investigate the eff ...

Reconstructing climate change and ombrotrophic bog development during the last 4000 years in northern Poland using biotic proxies, stable isotopes and trait-based approach

Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Mariusz Lamentowicz

In this study, we present a record spanning the last 4000 years from a Baltic bog (Kusowskie Bagno) in northern Poland. Using numerous biotic and abiotic proxies, such as testate amoebae (depth to water table reconstructions), stable carbon isotopes (C-13) ...

Microclimatological consequences for plant and microbial composition in Sphagnum-dominated peatlands

Luca Bragazza, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek

In three Scandinavian peatlands we studied to what extent plant and microbial community compositions are governed by local-scale microhabitat, with a special interest in the effect of aspect (i.e. exposition of slopes). Despite differences in solar irradia ...

Plant functional diversity drives niche-size-structure of dominant microbial consumers along a poor to extremely rich fen gradient

Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek, Mariusz Lamentowicz

Plant community composition is recognized more and more for playing an important role in ecosystem processes, such as C cycling. In particular, plant functional type (PFT) composition seems to have a key regulatory role, yet the underlying mechanisms in ...

Indirect effects of experimental warming on dissolved organic carbon content in subsurface peat

Alexandre Buttler, Luca Bragazza, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey

The peatland carbon store is threatened by climate change and is expected to provide positive feedback on air temperature. Most studies indicate that enhanced temperature and microbial activities result in a rise of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) as a cons ...

Plant functional types define magnitude of drought response in peatland CO2 exchange

Luca Bragazza, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek

Peatlands are important sinks for atmospheric carbon (C), yet the role of plant functional types (PFTs) for C sequestration under climatic perturbations is still unclear. A plant-removal experiment was used to study the importance of vascular PFTs for the ...

Vegetation-environment relationships in alpine mires of the West Carpathians and the Alps

Seasonal patterns of testate amoeba diversity, community structure and species-environment relationships in four Sphagnum-dominated peatlands along a 1300 m altitudinal gradient in Switzerland

Alexandre Buttler, Edward Mitchell, Luca Bragazza, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Mariusz Lamentowicz

Altitudinal gradients are useful to study the potential effects of climate change on ecosystems. Historically, studies on elevation gradients have primarily focused on macro-organisms and ecosystem processes, while microorganisms have been mostly ignored d ...

High nitrogen deposition alters the decomposition of bog plant litter and reduces carbon accumulation

Alexandre Buttler, Luca Bragazza, Jonathan Habermacher

Bogs are globally important sinks of atmospheric carbon (C) due to the accumulation of partially decomposed litter that forms peat. Because bogs receive their nutrients from the atmosphere, the world-wide increase of nitrogen (N) deposition is expected to ...
