My office mate Edvin works on dynamic shifts between symbiotic and dysbiotic states in host-symbiont systems (e.g. #corals) for his PhD, and his first paper just got published!! So happy for him 🙌

Craspedacusta sowerbyi is a tiny, two-millimeter #invasive #jellyfish species that uniquely inhabits freshwater ecosystems. Aided by climate change, it is rapidly spreading across global water bodies and threatening local aquatic life.

Freshwater ecosystem (Ecosystems 🏞️)
Freshwater ecosystems are a subset of Earth's aquatic ecosystems that include the biological communities inhabiting freshwater waterbodies such as lakes, ponds, rivers, streams, springs, bogs, and wetlands. They can be contrasted with marine ecosystems, which have a much higher salinity. Freshwater habitats can be classif...

Ekman spiral (Oceanography 🌊)
Ekman transport is part of Ekman motion theory, first investigated in 1902 by Vagn Walfrid Ekman. Winds are the main source of energy for ocean circulation, and Ekman transport is a component of wind-driven ocean current. Ekman transport occurs when ocean surface waters are influenced by the friction force acting on them via the wind. As the...

Swarm behaviour (Zoology 🦥)
Swarm behaviour, or swarming, is a collective behaviour exhibited by entities, particularly animals, of similar size which aggregate together, perhaps milling about the same spot or perhaps moving en masse or migrating in some direction. It is a highly interdisciplinary topic. As a term, swarming is applied particularly to insects, but ...

Landscape limnology (Landscape ecology 🏞️)
Landscape limnology is the spatially explicit study of lakes, streams, and wetlands as they interact with freshwater, terrestrial, and human landscapes to determine the effects of pattern on ecosystem processes across temporal and spatial scales.

Paleolimnology (Paleogeography 🦕)
Paleolimnology is a scientific sub-discipline closely related to both limnology and paleoecology. Paleolimnological studies focus on reconstructing the past environments of inland waters using the geologic record, especially with regard to events such as climatic change, eutrophication, acidification, and internal ontogenic processes...

Wetland (Habitat 🌄)
A wetland is a distinct semi-aquatic ecosystem whose groundcovers are flooded or saturated in water, either permanently, for years or decades, or only seasonally. Flooding results in oxygen-poor processes taking place, especially in the soils. Wetlands form a transitional zone between waterbodies and dry lands, and are different from other terrestrial or a...

Lake ecosystem (Ecosystems 🏞️)
A lake ecosystem or lacustrine ecosystem includes biotic plants, animals and micro-organisms, as well as abiotic physical and chemical interactions. Lake ecosystems are a prime example of lentic ecosystems, which include ponds, lakes and wetlands, and much of this article applies to lentic ecosystems in general. Lentic ecosystems can be compared with lotic e...
