Urban green roofs host intrinsic resistomes shaped by management but not dominated by pathogenic resistance - BMC Microbiology
Background Urban green roofs are increasingly introduced to enhance urban biodiversity and ecosystem services, yet their role in shaping antimicrobial resistance in cities remains unclear. Using long-...

Agricultural land use shapes short and long‑term bacterial diversity, community structure, and assembly in biofilms of adjacent streams - Environmental Microbiome
Background Intensive agriculture can disrupt adjacent stream ecosystems by increasing nutrient runoff, suspended and dissolved organic matter, and pesticide loads. Freshwater biofilms are surface-atta...

Elevated in-stream CO2 concentration stimulates net-N2O production from global fluvial ecosystems
Riverine CO2 and N2O concentrations have risen since pre-industrial times, yet their biogeochemical interactions remain unclear. This study found a po…
