Bottom-up and top-down impacts on freshwater pelagic community structure'

TL;DR: Over the 7 yr data set, a strong negative correlation between numbers of piscivores and planktivores was found, a weaker correlation betweenNumbers of plankTivore numbers and zooplankton biomass, and no between—year correlation between zoopLankon biomass and chlorophyll a concentration were found.
Journal ArticleDOI

Blue-green algae: their excretion of iron-selective chelators enables them to dominate other algae.

TL;DR: During blue-green algal blooms, other algae can be completely suppressed, and iron deprivation induces the production of hydroxamate chelators, which appear to be the agent suppressing other algae.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sunlight-induced formation of dissolved gaseous mercury in lake waters.

TL;DR: A positive relationship was found between photoinduced DGM production at different times of the year and incident radiation and removal of UV B light or addition of hydrogen peroxide during incubation did not result in significant changes in DGM levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Abiotic methylation of mercury in the aquatic environment

TL;DR: Results of laboratory-based investigations of aqueous mercury reactions with some potential methyl donors, including MeCo(dmg)(2)(H2O), a simple model for methylcobalamin, various methyltin compounds and methyl iodide, are presented.
