Data descriptor: a European multi lake urvey dataset of environmental variables...
Mantzouki, Evanthia; Campbell, James; Loon, Emiel van; Visser, Petra; Konstantinou, Iosif; Antoniou, Maria G.; Giuliani, GrégoryUnder ongoing climate change and increasing anthropogenic activity, which continuously challenge ecosystem resilience, an in-depth understanding of ecological processes is urgently needed. Lakes, as providers of numerous ecosystem services, face multiple stressors that threaten their functioning. Harmful cyanobacterial blooms are a persistent problem resulting from nutrient pollution and climate-change induced ...
Temperature effects explain continental scale distribution of cyanobacterial to...
Mantzouki, Evanthia; Lürling, Miquel; Fastner, Jutta; Domis, Lisette N. de Senerpont; Wilk-Woźniak, Elżbieta; Koreivienė, Judita; Seelen, LauraInsight into how environmental change determines the production and distribution of cyanobacterial toxins is necessary for risk assessment. Management guidelines currently focus on hepatotoxins (microcystins). Increasing attention is given to other classes, such as neurotoxins (e.g., anatoxin-a) and cytotoxins (e.g., cylindrospermopsin) due to their potency. Most studies examine the relationship between individ...
Detection of Planktothrix rubescens (Cyanobacteria) associated with microcystin...
Paulino, Sérgio; Valério, Elisabete; Faria, Natália; Fastner, Jutta; Welker, Martin; Tenreiro, Rogério; Pereira, PauloSo far, the presence of microcystins in Portuguese freshwater resources has always been attributed to the bloom-forming cyanobacteria Microcystis aeruginosa. In 2005, however, microcystins were detected at the Beliche reservoir (Algarve, South Portugal), following the development of a bloom dominated by Planktothrix rubescens. The identity of the causative organism was confirmed by combining both morphological ...
