Phytoplankton ecology of subarctic lakes in Finnish Lapland
The climate is warming and it is most noticeable in the arctic and subarctic areas, where the warming trend is expected to be the greatest. Arctic and subarctic freshwater ecosystems, which are a very characteristic feature of the northern landscape, are especially sensitive to climate change. They could be used as early warning systems, but more information about the ecosystem functioning and ...
متن کاملCould Cytomegalovirus Be Causing Widespread Outbreaks of Chronic Poor Health?
Evidence is presented for synchronous and recurring increases in medical admissions at between three and eight (most commonly five or six) year intervals. These lead to a typical 10% step-like increase in medical admissions (with other admissions totally unaffected). Such medical admissions are the tip of the iceberg for wider primary care cost increases. A range of non-specific signs and sympt...
متن کاملCould widespread use of combination antiretroviral therapy eradicate HIV epidemics?
Current combination antiretroviral therapies (ARV) are widely used to treat HIV. However drug-resistant strains of HIV have quickly evolved, and the level of risky behaviour has increased in certain communities. Hence, currently the overall impact that ARV will have on HIV epidemics remains unclear. We have used a mathematical model to predict whether the current therapies: are reducing the sev...
متن کاملViruses in subarctic lakes and their impact on benthic and pelagic bacteria.
Virus-bacterium interactions were investigated in the pelagic and benthic habitats in a set of lakes along an altitudinal gradient in the subarctic northern Sweden. Viral and bacterial abundances showed a significant variation between the lakes, with the highest benthic microbial abundances recorded in a high-altitude lake [993 m above sea level (a.s.l.)], whereas the highest pelagic microbial ...
