Abstract:

Seagrasses are well known for the important ecological roles they play in coastal marine waters worldwide. However, the severe rate of decline observed in seagrasses this century is expected to accelerate with climate change. Conservation efforts can be improved by quantifying physiological thresholds of seagrasses and using these estimates in modeling to forecast changes in distribution. This study examines the response of eelgrass (Zostera marina L.) across current temperatures to look for early warning signs of vulnerability and to evaluate the ways we determine critical thresholds for surv

Abstract:

Photosynthesis is responsible for fixing approximately 111 – 117 Pg of CO₂ into organic carbon each year, of which about half is performed by algae in the oceans. Over geological timescales, photosynthesis by algae was instrumental in transforming Earth’s atmosphere. Despite the integral role algae play in the carbon cycle, the interaction and feedbacks between CO₂ fixation by algae and atmospheric CO₂ is poorly understood. This thesis expands upon our current knowledge by tracing the evolution of the key enzyme of photosynthesis, Rubisco, in algae through geological history. It was found that

The tropical rainforests of the Peruvian Andes are some of the most biodiverse and most vulnerable to climate warming in the world.

The response of these forests to climate change over the next century has global relevance, due to the high levels of endemic species present and the potential role these areas will play as refugia for lowland species.

Abstract:

Mercury (Hg) is a global pollutant and potent neurotoxin that bioaccumulates in aquatic and terrestrial food webs as monomethylmercury (MeHg). Anaerobic microbes are largely responsible for MeHg production, which depends on the bioavailability of inorganic Hg substrates to methylators. Hg redox cycling pathways such as Hg reduction play a key role in determining Hg’s availability in the environment. Although abiotic photochemical Hg reduction typically dominates in oxic surface environments, Hg reduction pathways mediated by photosynthetic and anaerobic microbes are thought to play an importan

In order to forecast the impacts of global climate change, it is necessary to know the current conditions and create a baseline for future comparisons and to understand the factors and players that will affect what happens in the future.

These organisms display one of the most puzzling features observed in the animal kingdom: the mollusc-plastid association, which results from their ability to retain photosynthetically active chloroplasts (kleptoplasts) “stolen” from their algal food sources.
