The Difference a Species Makes on Freshwater Microbial Communities
•
1 like•226 views
This document summarizes research on the impact of invasive quagga mussels on freshwater microbial communities. Specifically, it discusses 1) feeding experiments that showed quagga mussels significantly reduced bacteria populations compared to control samples, and 2) field observations noting lower bacterial abundances and changes in bacterial composition in lakes invaded by quagga mussels compared to non-invaded lakes. The research suggests invasive species can significantly impact native microbial communities through trophic interactions and biogeochemical cycling.

This document discusses ecosystem services and their importance for human well-being. It defines ecosystem services as the benefits people obtain from ecosystems, including provisioning services like food production, regulating services like climate stabilization and water purification, supporting services like soil formation, and cultural services like spiritual and recreational benefits. The document notes that while human activities have improved lives, they have also weakened nature's ability to provide key services and increased pressures on ecosystems. It emphasizes that regulating and supporting services are undervalued and disturbances can be difficult to reverse, so continued lack of awareness will dramatically alter Earth's ecosystems.
Final ppt of stream ecology 1
This document provides an overview of a presentation on density dependence and independence in stream ecology. It discusses:
1. The objectives to understand density independent and dependent factors in stream systems. Density independent factors act regardless of population size, while dependent factors like competition and predation change with population density.
2. Researchers have found evidence that both types of factors can influence stream communities through experiments manipulating populations and studies of community impacts after events.
3. While stream ecology was initially descriptive, more recent work supports both factors as major regulators of stream organism populations, with density independence likely playing a larger role due to high diversity and variability in stream environments.

This document discusses the relationships between water, climate, and energy. It makes three key points:
1) Water, climate, and energy are inextricably linked - water is used to generate energy through methods like hydropower, and energy is used to transport and treat water.
2) Climate change impacts water resources through changes in precipitation and evaporation patterns, which can exacerbate water scarcity. It also acts to intensify competition over water and energy sources.
3) Solving the interconnected challenges of water, energy, and climate sustainability will require expanded research, innovative technologies, shared responsibility, and integrated policy frameworks across sectors and geographical regions.
SURF 2014 Poster - Code 201409
This study assessed the impact of urban intensification on water quality and microbial communities in canals in Suzhou, China. Samples were taken from sites with high, medium, and low population densities in both summer and spring. Nutrient levels, leaf litter breakdown, and microbial abundance varied between intensity areas and seasons. Microbial communities showed elevated nutrients and microbial levels in highly urbanized sites. Organic matter broke down faster in summer. Sequencing of microbial communities is ongoing but results so far indicate urbanization alters water quality and microbes.

This document discusses climate change and human impacts on the environment. It defines key terms like climate, weather, and greenhouse gases. It explains how the greenhouse effect traps heat in the atmosphere and is impacted by carbon dioxide, methane and water vapor. It also discusses how climate naturally changes over time but that human activities like fossil fuel use, pollution, and ecosystem damage are exacerbating climate change. It provides examples of evidence for climate change through changing ice caps, storms, and plant/animal distributions. Finally, it briefly covers the concepts of biomagnification and invasive species introduction.
Ecosystem Presentation Amity International Business School
An ecosystem is a biological community of interacting organisms and their physical environment. It includes biotic components such as plants, animals, fungi and microbes, as well as abiotic components like air, water, and mineral soil. Organisms within an ecosystem are organized into populations, communities, and food webs. Ecosystems can vary depending on factors like water, sunlight, and soil, and they can change due to natural causes or human activities such as pollution, construction, and overpopulation. Humans can help prevent ecosystem changes by wisely using resources, controlling pollution through laws, cleaning up litter, and keeping water sources clean.

Board Policy Seminar presentation/comments at IFPRI "Two Food Price Crises in Three Years' by Catherine Kling December 5, 2011Ecology
Ecology is the study of interactions between organisms and their environment. There are biotic (living) and abiotic (non-living) factors in an ecosystem. Ecosystems have multiple levels of organization including species, populations, communities, and the biosphere. For an ecosystem to sustain life it needs an energy source, organisms to convert energy, and nutrient cycling between organisms and the environment. Energy flows through food chains and webs from producers like plants to consumers. Key nutrient cycles in ecosystems include nitrogen, water, and carbon which allow organisms to obtain essential elements. Within a community, species interact through relationships like predation, competition, and symbiosis.
Biodiversity and Ecosystems Loss
This document discusses biodiversity and ecosystems. It defines biodiversity as the variety of life forms within an ecosystem or planet. Biodiversity is important because it supports ecosystem functions like decomposition and provides resources like food, medicine, and oxygen. Ecosystems are physical environments shared by living organisms. While biodiversity loss originated through natural causes, the current extinction rate is 100 times higher than the natural rate due to human activities like habitat destruction. Potential future issues from loss of biodiversity include increased pollution, extinction of more species, decreased food supplies, and increased diseases. Politics, culture, and lack of environmental protection influence biodiversity loss rates.

Placing Our University Campuses in the Context of their Regional Landscapes
Lael Parrott, Director of the Okanagan Institute for Biodiversity, Resilience, and Ecosystem Services (BRAES), UBC Okanagan, Kelowna, BC, Canada, presented at the 2015 International Conference on Health Promoting Universities and Colleges.
Conventional approaches to sustainability focus on a harm reduction and damage limitation agenda. The theoretical emergence of regenerative sustainability argues we should place social and ecological imperatives on equal footing, organizing around the idea that human activity can simultaneously improve environmental and human wellbeing. This session was used to explore the potential and practice of this sustainability narrative on higher education campuses. Universities and other higher education settings are unique in their ability to serve as living labs and agents of change for sustainability: they are single owner/occupiers, have a public mandate to create new knowledge and practices for community benefit, and integrate teaching and learning. To that end, UBC is transforming its campuses into living laboratories for sustainability. Faculty, staff and students, along with private, public and NGO sector partners, use the University’s physical setting, as well education and research capabilities, to test, study, teach, apply and share lessons learned, technologies created and policies developed. This talk reported on how academic and operational sustainability activities can support a vision for enhancing environmental and human well-being.
Crabs, heavy metals and near future ocean acidification - what do we know?
This study examines the combined effects of ocean acidification and varying heavy metal concentrations on the sand bubbler crab (Dotilla fenestrata) in estuaries in South Africa. The study aims to understand how heavy metal uptake and bioaccumulation in crabs is affected by increasing ocean acidity. Crabs, water, and sediment samples were collected from three estuary sites and are being analyzed for heavy metal content and crab tissue is being tested for toxicity when exposed to ocean acidification and heavy metals. The results of this study could help monitor pollution in the estuaries using crabs as bioindicators and inform environmental policy.
Stream Ecology
This document provides an overview of stream ecology, covering chemical, physical, and biological processes in running water ecosystems. It discusses that stream ecology is complex and involves interrelationships between organisms and their environment. The key processes discussed include the nutrient and chemical cycles, factors that influence physical properties at different spatial scales, primary producers and consumers in the food web, and how community interactions and ecosystem processes function. It also provides a brief introduction to macroinvertebrates, explaining their importance in the food chain and for assessing water quality based on their varying sensitivity to conditions.

Fluctuating resources in plants ;a general theory of invasibility roll.no.6004Ehsan Haider Sandhu Sandhu
This document presents a theory that a plant community's susceptibility to invasion, or its invasibility, increases when the amount of unused resources in the environment also increases. The theory states that an invading species is more likely to establish itself if it does not face intense competition for resources like light, nutrients, and water from resident species. The availability of these limiting resources can increase in two ways: resource use by resident vegetation can decline due to disturbances, herbivory, disease, etc., or the gross supply of resources can increase faster than residents can absorb them. Several published studies support the theory by finding higher invasion rates in environments with more available resources due to disturbances or nutrient additions.Scientists Discover Thriving Colonies of Microbes in Ocean 'Plastisphere'
Scientists have discovered thriving colonies of over 1000 types of microbes living on tiny pieces of ocean plastic debris, known as the "plastisphere". These complex microbial communities have developed since the explosion of plastics in the oceans over the last 60 years. The microbes on the plastic are distinct from those in surrounding seawater, raising questions about how these plastic-based habitats could impact ocean ecosystems and microbial transport.
Salish Sea Poster - final
Researchers sampled water at a dock in Mukilteo, Washington monthly from June to September 2011 to analyze plankton populations over time. Samples were taken using a Niskin bottle to determine the water layer where plankton were found most abundant. The samples were strained through a net and portions were preserved and counted under a microscope. The study found the highest plankton populations in July, with over 2,000 individuals counted, compared to 300-400 in other months. Phytoplankton, which made up 80% of species, peaked in July along with nutrient levels, suggesting plankton growth was correlated with increased nutrients.

The Strawberry Canyon Research Plot (SCRP) is a 0.16 hectare permanent plot established to study invasive and native plant populations in Strawberry Canyon, Berkeley, California. A census of the plot found 17,225 individual woody stems representing 16 genera and 17 species, of which 5,736 were identified as invasive non-native plants. The understory is dominated by invasive Rubus discolor and native Toxicodendron diversilobum, while the canopy is dominated by native Quercus agrifolia and Umbellularia californica. The plot aims to further understanding of factors promoting invasive species establishment such as light availability, distance from water, and basal area dominance. It will also serve
Biodiversity of Toxigenic Fungi and its Implications in Disease Management
Biodiversity of Toxigenic Fungi and its Implications in Disease ManagementInternational Institute of Tropical Agriculture
This document discusses toxigenic fungi and their implications for disease management. It summarizes research on the biodiversity of Fusarium and Aspergillus fungi in Africa and their ability to produce mycotoxins like aflatoxins. High levels of aflatoxin contamination have been found in staple crops in Africa. The document examines strategies for managing aflatoxin risk, including identifying atoxigenic Aspergillus strains for use in biocontrol programs to competitively exclude toxigenic strains. Understanding the diversity of toxigenic fungi in different regions and crops can help inform management approaches to reduce threats to food safety and human health.Microbiology Bio 127 Food Microbiology
This document discusses factors that influence microbial growth in foods and food spoilage. It covers intrinsic factors like composition, pH and water activity, and extrinsic factors like temperature and atmosphere. Various methods for controlling microbial growth and food spoilage are described, including removal of microorganisms, low temperature, high temperature processes like canning and pasteurization, controlling water availability, use of chemical preservatives, radiation, and surveillance programs. Fermented foods produced via lactic, propionic, and ethanolic fermentations are also summarized.
Factors Influencing Growth of Microorganisms in Food
The growth of microorganisms in food is influenced by both intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Intrinsic factors include the nutrient content, pH, water activity (aw), and biological structures of the food. Extrinsic factors are relative humidity, temperature, and gaseous environment where the food is stored. Microbial growth is supported by foods that are nutrient-rich, have neutral pH, high aw, and are damaged or processed in ways that allow microbes to penetrate tissues. Relative humidity, temperature that is optimal for the specific microbe, and ambient oxygen levels also impact growth. Understanding these various factors is important for food microbiologists to control spoilage and pathogen growth.

This document discusses toxigenic fungi and their implications for disease management. It summarizes research on the biodiversity of Fusarium and Aspergillus fungi in Africa and their ability to produce mycotoxins like aflatoxins. High levels of aflatoxin contamination have been found in staple crops in Africa. The document examines strategies for managing aflatoxin risk, including identifying atoxigenic Aspergillus strains for use in biocontrol programs to competitively exclude toxigenic strains. Understanding the diversity of toxigenic fungi in different regions and crops can help inform management approaches to reduce threats to food safety and human health.Microbiology Bio 127 Food Microbiology
This document discusses factors that influence microbial growth in foods and food spoilage. It covers intrinsic factors like composition, pH and water activity, and extrinsic factors like temperature and atmosphere. Various methods for controlling microbial growth and food spoilage are described, including removal of microorganisms, low temperature, high temperature processes like canning and pasteurization, controlling water availability, use of chemical preservatives, radiation, and surveillance programs. Fermented foods produced via lactic, propionic, and ethanolic fermentations are also summarized.
Factors Influencing Growth of Microorganisms in Food
The growth of microorganisms in food is influenced by both intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Intrinsic factors include the nutrient content, pH, water activity (aw), and biological structures of the food. Extrinsic factors are relative humidity, temperature, and gaseous environment where the food is stored. Microbial growth is supported by foods that are nutrient-rich, have neutral pH, high aw, and are damaged or processed in ways that allow microbes to penetrate tissues. Relative humidity, temperature that is optimal for the specific microbe, and ambient oxygen levels also impact growth. Understanding these various factors is important for food microbiologists to control spoilage and pathogen growth.
4 rumen fermentation
Rumen fermentation is the largest commercial fermentation process. It occurs in the rumens of ruminant animals like cows and goats. The rumen contains billions of microbes that break down plant fibers in feed into volatile fatty acids and microbial protein. This symbiotic relationship provides nutrients to both the microbes and the ruminant animal. Key features of rumen fermentation include attachment of microbes to feed particles, the four steps of rumination, and roles of different microbial populations like bacteria and protozoa.
Microbial flora and Feed fermentation
This document summarizes the microbial flora and fermentation process in ruminant digestive systems. It notes that the rumen contains over 50% of the total digestive tract and houses billions of microbes that break down tough plant fibers through fermentation. This produces volatile fatty acids like acetate, butyrate, and propionate as well as gases like methane and carbon dioxide. Specific bacteria, protozoa, and fungi in the rumen each play roles in digesting different components of feed. The fermentation process allows ruminants to derive protein, vitamins, and energy from ingesting roughage.
SPOILAGE OF FISH AND MEAT PRODUCTS BY MICROBES
Microorganisms play an important role in both the manufacture and spoilage of fish and meat products. Spoilage is caused by the growth of microbes like bacteria and molds which produce undesirable smells and flavors. Approximately 25% of food is lost to microbial spoilage after harvest or slaughter. The microfloral on fresh fish and meat comes from the environment like soil, water and is later contaminated during processing from equipment and handlers. The major spoilage microorganisms of fish include Pseudomonas and those of meat include Bacillus, Clostridium and Pseudomonas. Vacuum packaging increases shelf life by allowing the growth of lactic acid bacteria instead of aerobic spoilage bacteria.
Factors affecting the growth and survival of micro organisms in foods
Factors affecting the growth and survival of micro organisms in foodsMona Othman Albureikan / King Abdulaziz University
The document discusses factors that affect microbial growth in foods. It describes the microbial growth curve and identifies four main factors that influence growth: intrinsic properties of the food itself, extrinsic environmental conditions, implicit properties of microorganisms, and processing factors. Specific intrinsic factors discussed include nutrients, pH, water activity, and antimicrobial constituents. Extrinsic factors include temperature, relative humidity, and atmospheric gases. Implicit factors include microbial interactions like mutualism and antagonism. Food microbiology
This document discusses food microbiology. It explains that food contains microorganisms that can either cause deterioration through spoilage or interact beneficially. Microorganisms use foods as a nutrient source. They can spoil food through synthesis of new compounds or enzymatic breakdown. However, some microorganisms are used in food processing like fermentation or as probiotics. Factors like pH, moisture, nutrients, and temperature influence microbial growth in foods.
Fish spoilage
This document discusses fish spoilage, including the key signs of spoilage to look for, factors that contribute to spoilage, and the three main stages of spoilage: rigor mortis, autolysis, and bacterial invasion/putrefaction. It also outlines the main causes of spoilage: enzymatic, mechanical, and bacterial action as well as chemical decomposition like oxidation. Methods for assessing and limiting spoilage are also summarized.
Lecture 3 intrinsic and extrinsic factors
1) Microbial growth in food is dependent on intrinsic factors like the food's physical and chemical properties as well as extrinsic factors like storage conditions.
2) Key intrinsic factors include pH, water activity, redox potential, nutrient content, and antimicrobial constituents. The pH, water activity, and available nutrients significantly impact which microorganisms can grow.
3) Important extrinsic factors are temperature, relative humidity, and gases in the storage environment. Temperature particularly influences what microbes can grow and their growth rates, with psychrotrophs growing at refrigeration temperatures posing challenges.
Food spoilage
This document discusses food spoilage, including definitions, types, causes, and examples of spoilage in different food categories like meat, dairy, fruits and vegetables. It defines food spoilage as any changes that make food unacceptable for consumption. Spoilage can be caused by physical injury, enzymatic degradation, or microbial activity. The main types are physical, chemical, and microbial spoilage. Microbial spoilage is the most common and is caused by the growth of microorganisms like bacteria, yeasts and molds. Specific examples of spoilage in foods like meat, milk, eggs and produce are provided.
Food Safety (Microbiology, Sanitation and HACCP)
The document provides an overview of food safety topics including sanitation, microorganisms, foodborne illness, and Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP). It discusses key aspects of sanitation such as definitions, types of microorganisms, factors for bacterial growth, and sanitation practices on farms and in processing plants. It also outlines foodborne pathogens of concern and introduces the seven principles of HACCP for controlling food safety hazards.

Biodiversit1
This document discusses biodiversity at three levels - species diversity, genetic diversity, and ecosystem diversity. It notes that species diversity is highest near the equator and in coastal areas with warm sea surface temperatures. Throughout history there have been several mass extinction events that dramatically reduced biodiversity. Currently, the Holocene extinction caused by human activity is reducing biodiversity. The document outlines that each level of biodiversity influences the others, and loss at one level can impact the other levels. Maintaining biodiversity is important for sustaining ecosystem productivity and resilience against disasters.
Invasion in Deep
Climate change causes air and seawater temperatures to differ from seasonal averages. This situation causes aquatic organisms to migrate to regions with more favorable conditions. It also changes the relationship between species by allowing many species to come into contact with that they should not normally come into contact with. Invasive species that reproduce and spread very rapidly due to the absence of predators and diseases in their new habitats cause national as well as international problems in aquatic environments. Climate change has negative effects on many sectors. Since the spread of invasive species is mostly in water resources, the biggest impact is experienced in the fishing sector. This study focuses on invasive species that are important for biodiversity in aquatic ecosystems. Today, attention is drawn to the effects of increasing global climate change on invasive aquatic species and their spread. In addition, the precautions to be taken in aquatic ecosystems are emphasized.

CLIIMATE CHANGE AND BIODIVERSITY.pptx
Climate change threatens biodiversity in several ways. Rising global temperatures cause shifts in species' habitats and ranges, disrupting ecosystems. Polar regions are especially at risk, as melting ice threatens animals like polar bears. In the oceans, warming and acidification endanger coral reefs and plankton. Loss of biodiversity then undermines ecosystem services like pollination and water purification. International data shows an increasing number of threatened species as climate change accelerates extinction rates. Maintaining biodiversity can help buffer against climate impacts and support ecosystem adaptation.

Climate change is one of the primary factors contributing to the loss of biodiversity worldwide. The purpose of this review paper was to give serious thought about the present and future impacts of climate change on biodiversity, even though we are not aware of its synergistic effects on biological populations. In order to fully understand the biota's reactions to these climatic
changes, we also concentrated on how these changes impact their phenology and physiology. This review article's subjects are
covered in a non-random order to make it easier for readers to understand the connections between biodiversity and climate
change. We also discussed about how 1.1°C of global warming brought about by human activity has altered the Earth's climate
in ways never seen before and negatively impacted human health. We covered how to safeguard our biota by implementing practical conservation strategies at the end of this review article in order to reduce the effects of climate change on it. We hope that one day, because research on climate change and biodiversity protection is interdisciplinary and spans many different scientific areas, we will be able to address all these concerns and preserve our biota from their terrible consequences.
Literature review of microplastics
This literature review examines microplastics found in Hilsa fish from the Northern Bay of Bengal. It defines microplastics as plastic particles less than 5mm in size that originate from various sources like plastic waste, clothing fibers, and cosmetic products. Microplastics are hazardous as they can accumulate in marine organisms and food webs, causing physiological harm. Studies have found microplastics in many fish species worldwide, including mesopelagic fish that ingest plastic fibers and films. Once consumed, microplastics may block feeding appendages or the digestive system of fish.

This document summarizes a study that assessed the seasonal response of riverine microbial communities to glyphosate exposure. Two 14-day microcosm experiments were conducted using communities collected in spring and summer from a river frequently contaminated with glyphosate. The experiments showed little effect of a 10 mg/L glyphosate exposure on algal biomass, bacterial activity, or bacterial diversity. Effects on algal composition and eukaryotic diversity were only detected in the summer samples. The results demonstrate that while a short pulse of glyphosate at 10 mg/L seems to have limited effects, the response of natural microbial communities can vary seasonally and between experiments.
Environment
The document discusses several key topics related to the environment:
a) It defines the environment as encompassing all living and non-living things that occur naturally, including the interactions between living species, climate, weather, and natural resources.
b) It then discusses several specific environmental issues - global warming, ozone layer depletion, and various causes of and solutions to land degradation.
c) It also covers air pollution, water resource management, soil resource management, and strategies for achieving sustainable development. Sustainable development aims to meet human needs while sustaining natural systems for future generations.
Climate change briefing_2015
Micro-organisms play crucial roles in both causing and mitigating climate change through their use and production of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide. Climate change is increasing risks from microbial diseases by expanding the ranges of disease vectors. However, managing microbial processes through approaches like improved agricultural practices and biofuel production could help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help human societies adapt to climate impacts.

Climate Change and Destruction of Natural Resources
Indeed, a problem exists in the world, and it is posing a great threat to human life. Natural resources are down by at least 60% and what is left is also under attack, the climatic conditions are worsening by the day. It is a problem that is universal and affecting every part of the world. Climate change refers to the global or regional climate patterns which changed in the mid and late 20th century due to various factors such as increased amounts of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere produced largely by use of fossil fuels (Costanza 36). Climate change is causing more harm than good from farming to other business that depends on natural resources for their establishment, these funds are being destroyed by human beings for personal gains without caring about the adverse effects the destruction has on the universe.
History, overview, and Status
Climate change was experienced in the late 20th century, and it has grown tremendously ever since. The climate patterns currently are unpredictable, and no one can rely on what they thought were the patterns previously. Climate change is a problem that is directly affecting natural resources where currently trees bud in the spring, lakes freeze and thaw while extreme events that affect large water masses are caused by changing temperatures and precipitations (Le Billon 25). Some animal species have died and are become distinct due to the problem while others are migrating to a new location in search of food sources and breeding zones. It has been reported that cases of diseases and pests outbreak in the forests have increased in the 21st century compared to years ago. Effects are more than normal since every sector is affected including the fish and aquatic life, wildlife, wetlands, drylands as well, parks and other reserved areas, water bodies and plants among others.
Economic Problems Invited by Climatic Changes
The international community has tried a lot to deal constructively with the problem of countering climate change over the past two decades. Climate change is the preeminent global crisis of our time, and through various measures and policies have been put in place, minimal positive growth is recorded. With the many articles, comprehensive reviews, and intensive research, a conclusion drawn from them is that the costs and benefits of mitigating climate change in the next five decades are uncertain (Le Billon 64). So far a lot of money has been spent by the government and non-governmental organizations to save up the world from issues to brought about by climate chang.

ENVIRONMENTAL-EVOLUTION-1.pptx
Environmental evolution occurs when environmental changes force organisms to adapt in order to survive. There are three main types of environmental evolution: divergent evolution where species adapt to new habitats, convergent evolution where unrelated species develop similar traits to adapt to the same environment, and parallel evolution where species evolve independently but maintain similar traits. Human activities like climate change, habitat loss, pollution and invasive species are putting pressure on populations and influencing evolutionary processes. The future environment is expected to be warmer with rising seas, changing precipitation patterns, and more extreme weather depending on how much greenhouse gas emissions are reduced.
16159550.ppt
This document discusses concepts related to microbial ecology. It defines key terms like ecosystem, population, niche, and autochthonous. It also describes how microbial communities develop through succession and colonization. Succession involves the gradual replacement of one community by another as the environment changes. This can occur through autogenic succession, where microbes modify the habitat themselves, or allogenic succession, driven by external environmental factors. The document also discusses how microbial diversity is influenced by factors like available niches and environmental stress.

Additionally, models demonstrate that hydrogen peroxide is produced photochemically in surface waters through interactions between ultraviolet light and chromophoric dissolved organic matter, with levels varying seasonally, suggesting cyanobacteria have adapted to deal with these environmental stressors.
