Influence of Riverine Input on Norwegian Coastal Systems
2020
Coastal ecosystems are of high ecological and socioeconomic importance and are strongly influenced by processes from land, sea, and human activities. In this study, we present physical, chemical, and biological observations over two consecutive years from three study regions along the Norwegian coast that represent a broad latitudinal gradient in catchment and oceanographic conditions (∼59–69°N): outer Oslofjord/southern Norway, Runde/western Norway, and Malangen/northern Norway. The observations included river monitoring, coastal monitoring, and sensor-equipped ships of opportunity (“FerryBox”). The riverine discharge and transports were an order of magnitude higher, and the spatiotemporal…
Wolbachia prevalence and diversity in selected riverine predatory beetles (Bembidiini and Paederini)
2018
Despite the many studies on Wolbachia in Coleoptera, data about the prevalence of this bacterium among ground and rove beetles are missing. This study describes Wolbachia distribution and diversity in predatory beetles co-habiting the same environment - submontane river channels. Three species of Paederini (Staphylinidae) and four Bembidiini (Carabidae) were collected from six river catchments of the Carpathians. Wolbachia was absent in three species: Paederidus rubrothoracicus (Goeze), Bembidion decorum (Zenker in Panzer), Bembidion modestum (F.) - but detected in four others. Paederus limnophilus Erichson and Paederidus ruficollis F. were infected at only some sites by different strains o…
