The world's largest macroalgal blooms (MABs) caused by the Ulva prolifera outbreaks have occurred every summer since 2007 in the Southern Yellow Sea, China. Accumulating evidence showed that MABs may deteriorate the regional marine environment and influence the growth of some primary producers such
Applying nonadiabatic excited-state molecular dynamics, we investigate excitation energy transfer and exciton localization dynamics in a chlorophyll a (Chla) dimer system at the interface of two monomers of light-harvesting complex II trimer. After its optical excitation at the red edge of the Soret
A cDNA library was constructed from mRNA prepared from light-treated seedlings of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) and cDNAs for the chlorophyll a/b-binding protein LHC-II were identified using a pea gene as the heterologous probe. Three cDNA clones were sequenced. The deduced amino acid sequences
Chlorophyll a was adsorbed to mesoporous silica (FSM, folded-sheet mesoporous material) to form a chlorophyll-FSM conjugate, in which a nanometer-scale interaction between chlorophyll a molecules resembles a living plant leaf. The mesopores of FSM acted as nanoscale spaces not only for an
Chesapeake Bay has long experienced nutrient enrichment and water clarity deterioration. This study provides new quantification of loads and yields for sediment (fine and coarse grained), organic carbon (total, dissolved, and particulate), and chlorophyll-a from the monitored nontidal Chesapeake Bay
There are four LhcII genes of Dunaliella salina have been submitted to the database of GenBank. However, little is known about Lhca genes of this green alga, although this knowledge might be available to study the composition and phylogenesis of Lhc gene family. Recently, one Lhca gene was been
The effect of core-shell copper oxide nanoparticles with sizes smaller than 100 nm on cellular systems is still not well understood. Documenting these effects is pressing since core-shell copper oxide nanoparticles are currently components of pigments used frequently as antifouling paint protecting
Water quality deterioration can adversely affect the long-term sustainability of aquaculture industry. Understanding the processes of nutrient regeneration and uptake is important for improving water quality and the overall ecosystem health of aquaculture system. In spite of the importance of
A temperature-control curtain (TCC) is a new technique of selective withdrawal for controlling the outflow temperature of a reservoir. A TCC can significantly affect the reservoir hydrodynamic and thermal structure, but its effects on water quality and ecology remain unknown. In this study, we
A spectrofluorometer equipped with a highly sensitive near-IR InGaAs detector was used for the direct visualization of singlet oxygen emission at 1268 nm in olive oil during light irradiation with various different wavelengths. The virgin olive oil in methylene chloride (20% w/v, oxygen saturated)
Due to eutrophication and water quality deterioration in clear reservoirs, it is necessary to monitor and manage the main water parameters: concentration of total phosphorus (CTP), chemical oxygen demand (CCOD), chlorophyll-a (CChla), total suspended matter
Sand mining is a human activity that is increasing in inland waters and has profound effects on entire aquatic ecosystems. However, current knowledge of the effects of sand mining on freshwater lake ecosystems remains limited, especially for biotic communities. Here, we investigated the responses of
According to gap-phase dynamics theory, forests can be divided into four distinct patch types: gap patch (G), building patch (B), mature patch (M), and degeneration patch (D). Varying light conditions across patch types are one of the most important factors affecting the coexistence of vegetation.
Zooplankton could efficiently graze algae and thus improve water quality. However, as thermal stratification commonly occurs in deep lakes, the effect of warming on the trophic interactions of plankton in depth profiles is still not clear. To explore the pressure of crustacean grazing on
Glyphosate-based formulations are among the most widely used herbicides in the world. The effect of the formulation Glifosato Atanor(®) on freshwater microbial communities (phytoplankton, bacterioplankton, periphyton and zooplankton) was assessed through a manipulative experiment using six small
