Multilayered human activities shape the microbial communities of groundwater-dependent ecosystems in an arid oceanic island

Francesco Di Nezio, Andrea Di Cesare, Marta García‐Cobo…·Alejandro Martínez

The paper examines microbial communities in groundwater-dependent ecosystems on Lanzarote, finding that human activities significantly influence bacterial diversity and contamination levels.

Meiofaunal communities flourish in Antarctic marine sediments despite the harsh environmental conditions

Marta García‐Cobo, Diego Fontaneto, Ester Maria Eckert…·Alejandro Martínez

This study finds high meiofaunal diversity in Antarctic marine sediments, driven by habitat type rather than environmental variables, and suggests limited taxonomic resolution of the 18S marker explains apparent global dispersal.
