At the SIBECOL conference, besides meeting old and new colleagues and learning a lot, my friend @ylndmc.bsky.social and I won a best poster award for our study on trait distributions - thanks to the organisers for such a nice conference!!

💚✨ Thank you.

After an intense, inspiring and unforgettable week, the III SIBECOL & XVII AEET Meeting comes to an end — and yes, we’re already feeling nostalgic.

Very interesting finding: photochemical formation of N2O in freshwater and marine waters.

The N cycle gets more complex. 🧐

Exciting! And likely occurring in soils as well to help explain the rapid reduction of 15N-nitrate to N2O we observe in sunny California deserts. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Some bacteria and archaea make nitrous oxide during ammonia oxidation to nitrite in well-oxygenated waters, whereas denitrifying bacteria produce it during reduction of nitrate in oxygen-poor waters. None of these, however, could fully explain the observed increase. ‘It was just this weird conundrum that in many cases the mechanism that was being used to explain most of these emissions didn’t seem to be there,’ says Jennifer Glass at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, US. Scott Wankel of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute in Massachusetts believes that the ‘exciting’ findings could solve a key mystery: ‘For a long time we’ve known that whatever nitrous oxide was getting out into the atmosphere was made in the upper [ocean] layer, and we thought that was nitrification by ammonia-oxidising bacteria and archaea – but they don’t like light,’ he says. ‘Here all you need is for the upper metre of seawater to have some organic matter in it, and the nitrous oxide will be quickly released to the atmosphere … it really could be driving the entire bus of the oceanic flux of nitrous oxide to the atmosphere, or at least a very large part of it.’

Exciting discovery and an amazing new word: photochemodenitrification !

Light induced conversion of nitrite to nitrous oxide. Nothing to laugh about.

🦟🚨 ¿La clave del virus del Nilo está en la microbiota de los mosquitos?

La microbiota de los mosquitos juega un papel clave en su biología y capacidad de transmisión de patógenos.

Un estudio en el que participa la UGR desvela la composición de la microbiota del mosquito Culex perexiguus, principal vector del virus del Nilo - Canal UGR
El papel de la microbiota podría determinar la capacidad de los mosquitos para transmitir la enfermedad

Interestingly, the CO2 respired from incubations of these same soils was closest in age to the most labile ramped oxidation fraction - indicating that the respired CO2 was from a thermally labile organic carbon pool.
