Review Ecology

Biodiversity promotes ecosystem functioning despite environmental change

Pubin Hong, Bernhard Schmid, Frederik De Laender, Nico Eisenhauer, Xingwen Zhang, Haozhen Chen, Dylan Craven, Hans J. De Boeck, Yann Hautier, Owen L. Petchey, Peter B. Reich, Bastian Steudel, Maren Striebel, Madhav P. Thakur, Shaopeng Wang

Summary: The research shows that biodiversity has a positive impact on ecosystem functioning, especially in high-stress environments affected by global environmental change factors. This positive impact is mainly driven by interspecific complementarity and increases over time.

Cell size as driver and sentinel of phytoplankton community structure and functioning

Helmut Hillebrand, Esteban Acevedo-Trejos, Stefanie D. Moorthi, Alexey Ryabov, Maren Striebel, Patrick K. Thomas, Marie-Luise Schneider

Summary: From a systematic literature review, it was found that there are consistent and significant allometric relationships between cell sizes and the functional performance of phytoplankton species. Additionally, there is a rich literature on how cell sizes change in response to various environmental factors, which helps in understanding the impact of cell size on phytoplankton community dynamics. In conclusion, cell size is a highly predictive trait for phytoplankton metabolism at the cellular scale and serves as a suitable sentinel of phytoplankton responses to changing environments.

Integrating multiple dimensions of ecological stability into a vulnerability framework

Summary: Ecological stability is a complex concept that involves multiple dimensions of functional and compositional responses to environmental change. Our study introduces an integrative metric of overall ecological vulnerability (OEV) that captures both functional and compositional aspects, providing a framework for assessing ecological risk and management. The findings highlight the importance of considering multiple stability components and their relationships in understanding ecosystems' vulnerability to environmental change.

Environmental stoichiometry mediates phytoplankton diversity effects on communities' resource use efficiency and biomass

Miriam Gerhard, Alexandra Schlenker, Helmut Hillebrand, Maren Striebel

Summary: This study investigated the impact of phytoplankton diversity on ecosystem functioning under variable nutrient ratios. The results showed that increasing species diversity led to higher community resource use efficiency (RUE) under a gradient of N:P ratios, but RUE was maintained even under extreme phosphorous limitation. This suggests that imbalanced N:P ratios may not necessarily decrease ecosystem function.

Summary: Human-induced salinization poses a major threat to freshwater ecosystems. Current water quality guidelines are insufficient to protect lake food webs. New guidelines are urgently needed to safeguard lake ecosystems.

Summary: The salinisation of freshwater ecosystems is a significant threat, affecting biodiversity and human societies. Understanding its ecological and evolutionary consequences is still a challenge, with various research gaps identified. Focusing on global- and landscape-scale processes, functional approaches, genetic and molecular levels, and ecoevolutionary dynamics can help predict the impacts of freshwater salinisation.

Phytoplankton Community Performance Depends on the Frequency of Temperature Fluctuations

Charlotte Kunze, Miriam Gerhard, Marrit Jacob, Niklas Alexander Franke, Matthias Schroeder, Maren Striebel

Summary: This study investigated the effect of temperature fluctuation frequency on a natural phytoplankton community. The results showed that phytoplankton biomass tended to increase with faster fluctuations, but was lowest in the diurnal frequency treatment. The performance of phytoplankton communities was lower or comparable in diurnal or slower fluctuation frequencies compared to constant temperature conditions, while faster fluctuations showed higher performance. Minor differences in community structure were observed, but species diversity remained stable over time. Resource use efficiency and stoichiometry did not change with fluctuation frequency treatments.

Summary: This study conducted a large-scale mesocosm experiment across multiple sites in North America and Europe to investigate the response of lake zooplankton communities to varying chloride concentrations. The findings suggest that crustaceans are more sensitive to elevated chloride levels than rotifers, and that there is a consistent decrease in abundance and taxon richness with increasing salinity across different taxonomic groups. However, functional diversity shows a weaker loss compared to taxonomic diversity.

Strong Dynamics in Tidal Marsh DOC Export in Response to Natural Cycles and Episodic Events From Continuous Monitoring

Alana Menendez, Maria Tzortziou, Patrick Neale, Patrick Megonigal, Leanne Powers, Philippe Schmitt-Kopplin, Michael Gonsior

Summary: This study investigates the variability of carbon and nutrient exchange between tidal wetlands and adjacent waters. The results show that the annual flux from the wetland to the sub-estuary is higher than previously reported, emphasizing the importance of continuous measurements for monitoring carbon export under different environmental conditions.

Summary: Tidal marshes are an important source of dissolved organic matter (DOM) to estuaries, and understanding temporal patterns of DOM quantity and composition at the marsh-estuarine interface can contribute to the regulation of water quality and coastal ecosystem health.

Summary: The salinization of freshwaters poses a global threat to aquatic biodiversity. The study quantified the variation in chloride (Cl-) tolerance among 19 freshwater zooplankton species in four countries. The results showed high variation in Cl- tolerance among populations, with zooplankton community composition being the only factor that explained this variation. The large intraspecific variation in Cl- tolerance suggests that water quality guidelines should consider multiple populations and communities.

Marine primary producers in a darker future: a meta-analysis of light effects on pelagic and benthic autotrophs

Maren Striebel, Liisa Kallajoki, Charlotte Kunze, Jochen Wollschlaeger, Anne Deininger, Helmut Hillebrand

Summary: The availability of underwater light is influenced by various factors, and reducing light intensity has a significant impact on the performance of marine autotrophs. Experimental observations show that reducing light leads to a decrease in biomass-related performance, while physiological performance remains relatively unchanged. However, organisms can acclimate to reduced light conditions over time.

Summary: A study investigated a naturally-induced biphasic spring bloom of diatoms and Phaeocystis and examined the temporal dynamics of heterotrophic prokaryotes, virus-like particles, and dissolved amino acids and carbohydrates. The study induced a phytoplankton spring bloom in mesocosms and observed rapid changes in bacterial abundance, viral infection, and dissolved organic carbon. The results demonstrate the complexities of organic matter dynamics and community composition in natural coastal ecosystems.

The response of aquatic ecosystems to the interactive effects of stratospheric ozone depletion, UV radiation, and climate change

P. J. Neale, C. E. Williamson, A. T. Banaszak, D. -p. Haeder, S. Hylander, R. Ossola, K. C. Rose, S. -a. Waengberg, R. Zepp

Summary: Variations in stratospheric ozone and changes in the aquatic environment by climate change and human activity are modifying the exposure of aquatic ecosystems to UV radiation. The impacts of these changes, combined with factors such as warming and ocean acidification, are considered for aquatic micro-organisms, macroalgae, plants, and animals. Minimising the disruptive consequences of these effects on critical services provided by the world's rivers, lakes and oceans will require continued adherence to the Montreal Protocol and a wider inclusion of solar UV radiation and its effects in studies and/or models of aquatic ecosystems under conditions of the future global climate.
