Abstract It is necessary to predict the critical transition of lake ecosystems due their abrupt, non-linear effects on social-economic systems. Given promising application paleolimnological archives tracking historical changes ecosystems, it speculated that they can also record lake’s transition. We studied Lake Dali-Nor in arid region Inner Mongolia because profound shrinking experienced between 1300 s and 1600 s. reconstructed succession bacterial communities from a 140-cm-long sediment core at 4-cm intervals detected Our results showed trajectory 1200 2010s was divided into two alternative states: state1 state2 1400 2010s. Furthermore, late s, appearance tipping point slowing down implied existence By using multi-decadal time series sedimentary core, with general Lotka-Volterra model simulations, local stability analysis found were most unstable as approached transition, suggesting collapse triggers community shift an equilibrium state another state. harbored strongest antagonistic mutualistic interactions, which may imply detrimental role interaction strength stability.

Abstract Blooms of microalgal red tides and macroalgae (e.g., green golden caused by Ulva Sargassum ) have widespread problems around China in recent years, but there is uncertainty what triggers these blooms how they interact. Here, we use 30 years monitoring data to help answer questions, focusing on the four main species microalgae Prorocentrum donghaiense , Karenia mikimotoi Noctiluca scintillans Skeletonema costatum associated with region. The frequency increased from 1991 2003 then decreased until 2020, S. exhibiting highest rate decrease. Green started occur 1999 has since been increase.

Abstract Microbial communities play a crucial role in ocean ecology and global biogeochemical processes. However, understanding the intricate interactions among diversity, taxonomical composition, functional traits, how these factors respond to climate change remains significant challenge. Here, we propose seven distinct ecological statuses by systematically considering structure, potential of microbiome delineate their biogeography. Anthropogenic is expected alter status surface influencing environmental conditions, particularly nutrient oxygen contents. Our predictive model, which utilizes machine learning, indicates that approximately 32.44% may undergo changes from present end this century, assuming no policy interventions. These mainly include poleward shifts main taxa, increases photosynthetic carbon fixation decreases metabolism. proportion can decrease significantly with effective control greenhouse gas emissions. study underscores urgent necessity for implementing policies mitigate change, an perspective.

Here we analysed 26 years pigment data (14,824 samples between 32°S Antarctic coast) from over 50 voyages (1996 – 2022), using phytoclass software. The analysis confirms that Polar Front (APF) is a circumpolar class boundary, separating haptophyte dominated to north diatom domination chlorophyll south, thereby biological analogue corresponding Biogeochemical Divide. Furthermore, community composition was remarkably similar zones south APF substantial spatial biomass.

Arctic warming is occurring at a much faster rate than in other parts of the globe, with potentially devastating consequences for diverse array species within ecologically and biologically sensitive areas marine region. However, climate change research this region sparse compared to biomes, hindering conservation efforts. In article, we review synthesize available literature understand observed potential impacts on different ecosystems We reviewed 253 articles reporting changes response (225 studies documenting 28 predicted impacts). The revealed that most effort has been concentrated only subset Large Marine Ecosystems (LMEs) (5/18 LMEs), majority LMEs being poorly studied. papers focused mammals (19%) followed by microalgae (17%). A number documented variability planktonic communities (microalgae, macroalgae, zooplankton), resulting alteration ecosystem structure function. Reproductive failure, decline populations, diet composition, behavior, breeding biology were reported sea birds mammals. Further, shifts spatial distribution fishes several studies. This provides persuasive evidence multiple indices are changing, almost all components biotic (from plankton top predators). identify gaps (such as limited inventory biota, robustness data supporting an Ocean scale, suitability assessment species) where future can help quantify advance understanding their adaptive management.
