Metabolic biochemical models of N <sub>2</sub> fixation for sulfide oxidizers, methanogens, and methanotrophs Open
Dinitrogen (N 2 ) fixation provides bioavailable nitrogen to the biosphere. However, in some habitats (e.g., sediments), the metabolic pathways of organisms carrying out N 2 fixation are unclear. We present metabolic models representing va…

Addressing grand ecological challenges in aquatic ecosystems: how can mesocosms be used to advance solutions? Open
Rapid and drastic anthropogenic impacts are affecting global biogeochemical processes and driving biodiversity loss across Earth's ecosystems. In aquatic ecosystems, species distributions are shifting, abundances of many species have decli…

Macro‐ and micronutrient effects on phytoplankton in Green Bay, Lake Michigan, and the western basin of Lake Erie Open
Efforts to reduce the frequency, extent, and toxicity of harmful algal blooms (HABs) require knowledge about drivers of algal growth, toxin production, and shifts in phytoplankton community composition to cyanobacterial dominance. Although…

We know less about phosphorus retention in constructed wetlands than we think we do: A quantitative literature synthesis Open
Wetlands are increasingly being constructed to retain phosphorus, but indicators of performance are often unique to individual wetlands. In this quantitative literature synthesis, we highlight two major knowledge gaps and a source of bias …

Human activities shape global patterns of decomposition rates in rivers Open
Rivers and streams contribute to global carbon cycling by decomposing immense quantities of terrestrial plant matter. However, decomposition rates are highly variable and large-scale patterns and drivers of this process remain poorly under…

An assessment of N, P, Fe, Zn, Ni and Mo limitation on suspended nutrient diffusing substrates in nearshore areas of Lake Michigan and Lake Erie Open
In large lakes, metal availability sometimes limits the acquisition of nutrients (nitrogen, N and phosphorus, P) in offshore waters that are relatively isolated from tributaries and sediments. We hypothesize that metals may also be importa…

Sublethal nickel toxicity shuts off manganese oxidation and pellicle biofilm formation in <i>Pseudomonas putida</i> <span>GB</span> ‐1 Open
In sediments, the bioavailability and toxicity of Ni are strongly influenced by its sorption to manganese (Mn) oxides, which largely originate from the redox metabolism of microbes. However, microbes are concurrently susceptible to the tox…

Role of trace metal co-limitation in cyanobacterial blooms of Maumee Bay (Lake Erie) and Green Bay (Lake Michigan) Open
The open waters of large lakes can sometimes become so depleted in important metals that phytoplankton communities become either growth limited or limited in some metabolic function. Metals such as Fe, Ni, Mo, and Zn are used as co-factors…

Effects of invasive species and chemical contaminants on biogeochemical fluxes across ecosystem boundaries Open
Ecosystem functions, which drive global cycles and provide services to humans, can be influenced by losses and gains of nutients, detritus, and organisms from beyond an ecosystem's boundaries (i.e., resource subsidies). Anthropogenic distu…

Global Patterns and Controls of Nutrient Immobilization on Decomposing Cellulose in Riverine Ecosystems Open
Microbes play a critical role in plant litter decomposition and influence the fate of carbon in rivers and riparian zones. When decomposing low‐nutrient plant litter, microbes acquire nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) from the environment (i…
