🔵 ➡️ 🦆 ➡️ 🔵 Not only plants and zooplankton! We proved that these guys 👇 carry around all major groups of plankton metacommunities in a pondscape - bacteria, phytoplankton, protozoa, fungi... you name it. :) 🦠 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jb…

These two water samples are collected from opposite ends of a pond. It is likely that the dense layer of duckweed inhibited the photosynthesis of algae in one side, thus contributing to the growth of purple bacteria that live in oxygen-poor waters.

If you're interested in mesocosm experiments focusing on habitat fragmentation & climate change, join our team Zsófia Horváth Csaba Vad Thu-Hương Huỳnh Karoly Palffy Zsuzsi Márton @BartaBarbara2 Varsha Rani Adam Fierpasz in July! AQUACOSM call is available: aquacosm.eu/transnational-…

Celebrating the end of our AQUACOSM Transnational Access, where we had a lovely team of international guests here for the course of two months, producing exciting data in a mesocosm experiment with us!

Two months, 60 mesocosms, and almost as many people participating or helping out in various steps in our summer mesocosm experiment! ;) youtu.be/vKNaP_QYNwU AQUACOSM Szabó Beáta Thu-Hương Huỳnh Dunja Lukić Csaba Vad Olivera Stamenković_ @olivera11.bsky.social KratinaLab Karoly Palffy ...

And it is done!!! Closing the mesocosms experiment after 2 months of insane intensity!! Thanks to all these #MetaHeroines who have accompanied me in this adventure!! #BombCratersPonds #Apaj Now, time to start compile and order all the results 🤞🏽🤞🏽 #MetaHeroesWP1 Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions

Our first paper 🥇 resulting from our citizen science project MyPond 🪷 Hungary is full with garden ponds 🔵 🔵 🔵 They are intensely managed... 🐟 but they might still be useful for biodiversity! More coming soon, with another paper on the way! ;)

Excited to share our new study on how connectivity loss in pond networks impacts microbial biodiversity published in Global Change Biology ! See the details here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/gc… Váczy-Földi Máté Zsófia Horváth Csaba Vad Thu-Hương Huỳnh Zsuzsi Márton Karoly Palffy
