  2. 1. Composition and dynamics of the bacterial community in aerobic granular sludge reactors

    Author : Enikö Barbara Szabo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; qPCR; sequencing batch reactors; microbial community composition; T-RFLP; functional groups; Illumina MiSeq; wastewater; aerobic granular sludge; nitrogen removal; population dynamics;

    Abstract : The aerobic granular sludge (AGS) technology is probably the future standard for wastewater treatment, due to its low footprint and low energy consumption. Although achieving granulation is usually not a challenge anymore, our understanding of the community assembly during start-up, and of the microbial ecology of these reactors in general, is incomplete.

  4. 2. Microbial Community Assembly during Aerobic Granulation

    Author : Raquel Liebana; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; aerobic granular sludge; granulation; washout dynamics; membrane bioreactors; sequencing batch reactors; fluorescence in-situ hybridization; microbial community dynamics; reproducibility;

    Abstract : Environmental deterioration together with the increasingly restrictive legislation of water quality standards have led to a demand for compact, efficient and less energy consuming technologies for wastewater treatment. Aerobic granular membrane bioreactors (AGMBRs) combine the advantages of aerobic granular sludge and membrane filtration. READ MORE

  5. 3. Drivers of Population Dynamics in Bacterioplankton : Spotlight on Alphaproteobacteria and its dominant SAR11 Lineage

    Author : Friederike Heinrich; Stefan Bertilsson; Alexander Eiler; David Kirchman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bacterial community dynamics; Alphaproteobacteria; SAR11; LD12; Southern Ocean; lakes; Biology with specialization in Limnology; Biologi med inriktning mot limnologi;

    Abstract : Bacteria are mediators of biogeochemical cycles and are in this way vital for maintaining life on earth. Their distribution, abundance and functioning are driven by environmental heterogeneity and dynamic change in abiotic and biotic factors. READ MORE

  6. 4. Bacterioplankton population dynamics in a changing ocean

    Author : Markus V. Lindh; Jarone Pinhassi; Pierre Galand; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; marine microbiology; ecology; bacterioplankton; community composition; diversity; seasonality; biogeography; bimodal; metapopulation; community functioning; climate change; environmental disturbance;

    Abstract : Bacterioplankton is characterized by high diversity, short generation times and rapid turnover. Despite their small size, these numerous microorganisms are a fundamental piece of aquatic ecosystems by channeling carbon to higher trophic levels through dissolved organic matter utilization.

  7. 5. It's complicated: : The role of timing in microbial community coalescence

    Author : Theresa Lumpi; Eva S. Lindström; Clara Ruiz-González; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; community coalescence; arrival timing; dispersal timing; microbial communities; community composition; lake bacteria; Biology with specialization in Limnology; Biologi med inriktning mot limnologi;

    Abstract : In recent years, the importance of historical contingency has been increasingly recognized in microbial communities. During community coalescence, immigration history, and dispersal history can become decisive for the developing community. READ MORE
