Benthic protists and fungi of Mediterranean deep hypsersaline anoxic basin redoxcline sediments
(2014)Some of the most extreme marine habitats known are the Mediterranean deep hypersaline anoxic basins (DHABs; water depth 3500 m). Brines of DHABs are nearly saturated with salt, leading many to suspect they are uninhabitable ... -
Bird community characteristics as indicators of sustainable management in olive grove ecosystems of Central Greece
(2015)The role of breeding birds as indicators of sustainable management in olive groves was investigated. The data revealed significantly higher alpha diversity in organic and abandoned olive groves and maquis than in conventional ... -
Different phytoplankton descriptors show asynchronous changes in a shallow urban lake (L. Kastoria, Greece) after sewage diversion
(2013)Phytoplankton long-term changes were examined in a shallow urban lake (L. Kastoria, Greece) after sewage diversion in nine distinct years from 1994-2010. Using different levels of phytoplankton descriptors (diversity, ... -
Effects of Organic Farming on Winter Plant Composition, Cover and Diversity in Olive Grove Ecosystems in Central Greece
(2013)The present study aimed to assess the effects of organic farming in comparison with conventional on plant composition, plant cover (%), diversity [species richness, Shannon, Simpson, and evenness (Pielou's) indexes] and ... -
Herbaceous Plant Diversity and Identification of Indicator Species in Olive Groves in Central Greece
(2013)The present study is aimed at assessing the herbaceous plant diversity and determining the specific species related to different management systems in olive grove ecosystems [organic, conventional (unsprayed), and conventional ... -
Microscopic eukaryotes living in a dying lake (Lake Koronia, Greece)
(2009)The morphological and phylogenetic diversity of the microscopic eukaryotes of the Lake Koronia water column was investigated during a mass kill of birds and fish in August-September 2004. The dominant morphospecies ... -
Prokaryotic community structure and diversity in the sediments of an active submarine mud volcano (Kazan mud volcano, East Mediterranean Sea)
(2010)We investigated 16S rRNA gene diversity at a high sediment depth resolution (every 5 cm, top 30 cm) in an active site of the Kazan mud volcano, East Mediterranean Sea. A total of 242 archaeal and 374 bacterial clones were ... -
Sponges of economical interest in the Eastern Mediterranean: an assessment of diversity and population density
(2008)The aim of this paper was to investigate diversity and population density of sponges with manifest or potential economical interest for the first time in the Eastern Mediterranean. For this purpose, the area of Dodecanese, ... -
Variability of Prokaryotic Community Structure in a Drinking Water Reservoir (Marathonas, Greece)
(2012)The structure of the Bacteria and Archaea community in a large drinking water reservoir (Marathonas, Greece; MR) was investigated in October 2007 and September 2008, using 16S rRNA gene clone libraries. The bacterial ...
