Journal ArticleDOI
The boundless carbon cycle
Tom J. Battin,Tom J. Battin,Sebastiaan Luyssaert,Louis A. Kaplan,Anthony K. Aufdenkampe,Andreas Richter,Lars J. Tranvik +6 more
TL;DR: The terrestrial biosphere is assumed to take up most of the carbon on land, but it is becoming clear that inland waters process large amounts of organic carbon and must be considered in strategies to mitigate climate change as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biophysical controls on organic carbon fluxes in fluvial networks
Tom J. Battin,Louis A. Kaplan,Stuart E. G. Findlay,Charles S. Hopkinson,Eugènia Martí,Aaron I. Packman,J. Denis Newbold,Francesc Sabater +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors combine geophysics, microbial ecology and organic geochemistry to show geophysical opportunity and microbial capacity to enhance the net heterotrophy in streams, rivers and estuaries.
Journal ArticleDOI
The ecology and biogeochemistry of stream biofilms
TL;DR: The ecology and biogeochemistry of stream biofilms are described and the influence of physical and ecological processes on their structure and function are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contributions of microbial biofilms to ecosystem processes in stream mesocosms
TL;DR: It is shown that microbial biofilms changed the physical and chemical microhabitat and contributed to ecosystem processes in 30-m-long stream mesocosms by enhancing the relative uptake of organic molecules of lower bioavailability and changing their downstream linkage.
Journal ArticleDOI
The ecological coherence of high bacterial taxonomic ranks
Laurent Philippot,Siv G. E. Andersson,Tom J. Battin,James I. Prosser,Joshua P. Schimel,William B. Whitman,Sara Hallin +6 more
TL;DR: The ecological coherence of high bacterial taxa in the light of genome analyses is discussed and examples of niche differentiation between deeply diverging groups in terrestrial and aquatic systems are presented.
