Microbial dynamics of an epilithic mat community in a high alpine stream.
Studies were conducted to examine interrelationships between the heterotrophic and phototrophic populations within an epilithic community in the outlet stream of a high alpine lake. Levels of nitrates, phosphates, and total organic compounds in the lake were consistently near the lower limits of detectability. Microscopic examination of the community by phase-contrast light microscopy and scann...
متن کاملInfluence of Stream channel morphology and in-stream habitats on fish community in Golestan province Streams
Four streams with different sizes were selected for studying the effects of environmental factors on fish assemblages using indirect (Detrended Correspondence Analysis, DCA) and direct (Redundancy Analysis, RDA) gradient analysis in Golestan province. DCA of presence-absence and relative abundance data showed well gradient and linear model of species variability. In the within-site RDA, environ...
متن کاملInteraction between local hydrodynamics and algal community in epilithic biofilm.
Interactions between epilithic biofilm and local hydrodynamics were investigated in an experimental flume. Epilithic biofilm from a natural river was grown over a 41-day period in three sections with different flow velocities (0.10, 0.25 and 0.40 m s(-1) noted LV, IV and HV respectively). Friction velocities u* and boundary layer parameters were inferred from PIV measurement in the three sectio...
متن کاملChemical communication in competitive interactions among tropical stream detritivores
The role of chemical communication among competitors in streams is virtually unknown, especially in tropical streams. In this study, we experimentally examined the ability of four tropical invertebrate shredders (Anisocentropus kirramus Neboiss 1980, Lectrides varians Mosely 1953, Triplectides gonetalus Moser & Neboiss 1982 and Atalophlebia sp.) to detect and respond to chemical cues from compe...
متن کاملThe spatial organization and microbial community structure of an epilithic biofilm.
Microbial biofilms are common on lithic surfaces, including stone buildings. However, the ecology of these communities is poorly understood. Few studies have focused on the spatial characteristics of lithobiontic biofilms, despite the fact that spatial structure has been demonstrated to influence ecosystem function (and hence biodegradation) and community diversity. Furthermore, relatively few ...
