The Well-being Mandala
This paper is part of an effort, undertaken by the staff of the Tellus Institute and their collaborators, to address the issue of a Great Transition (GT). A GT is one of many possible futures for humanity. Whether a GT occurs is, to a great extent, a matter of choice. “Push” (necessity, avoidance of risk/harm) and “pull” (pursuit of attractive options) will guide our collective decision. Well-b...
متن کاملInfluence of aquatic microorganisms on Legionella pneumophila survival.
The ability of aquatic bacteria Pseudomonas fluorescens SSD (Ps-D) and Pseudomonas putida SSC (Ps-C) to support the persistence of Legionella pneumophila (Lp-1) in an artificial water microcosm was investigated for 42 day, at two different incubation temperatures. At 4 degrees C, individually suspended Lp-1 was no longer detectable just after 24 hours, while in co-cultures with Pseudomonas, Lp1...
متن کاملThe influence of selected antibiotics on aquatic microorganisms.
This paper presents the influence of penicillin, erythromycin, oxytetracycline and streptomycin on aquatic microorganisms isolated from three reservoirs with varied extent of environmental pollution (Sulej6w Reservoir, Zegrze Reservoir and Vistula River). The experiments were conducted in especially prepared microcosms (aerated 151 aquariums). From among the examined antibiotics streptomycin sh...
متن کاملInterspecific interactions drive chitin and cellulose degradation by aquatic microorganisms
Complex biopolymers (BPs) such as chitin and cellulose provide the majority of organic carbon in aquatic ecosystems, but the mechanisms by which communities of bacteria in natural systems exploit them are unclear. Previous degradation experiments in artificial systems predominantly used microcosms containing a single bacterial species, neglecting effects of interspecific interactions. By constr...
متن کاملDoes aquatic foraging impact head shape evolution in snakes?
Evolutionary trajectories are often biased by developmental and historical factors. However, environmental factors can also impose constraints on the evolutionary trajectories of organisms leading to convergence of morphology in similar ecological contexts. The physical properties of water impose strong constraints on aquatic feeding animals by generating pressure waves that can alert prey and ...
