Patterns of Change in Metabolic Capabilities of Sediment Microbial Communities in River and Lake Ecosystems by Adam Oest, Ali Alsaffar, Mitchell Fenner, Dominic Azzopardi, Sonia M. Tiquia-Arashiro

“…Here, we investigated the shifts in metabolic profiles of sediment microbial communities, along Saint Clair River and Lake Saint Clair using Biolog EcoPlates, which test for the oxidation of 31 carbon sources. The number of utilized substrates was generally higher in the river sediments (upstream) than in the lake sediments (downstream), suggesting a shift in metabolic activities among microbial assemblages. …”

Mankind’s Relationship with the Environment in Jeff VanderMeer’s Annihilation by Hossein Mohseni

“…The present study believes that the various aspects of this shattering gives us a glimpse of the kind of relationship we could have with the environment in the Anthropocene, the human epoch. By utilizing the theoretical concepts in key secondary sources – such as Pieter Vermeulen’s Literature and the Anthropocene (2020) and Benjamin Robertson’s None of This Is Normal: The Fiction of Jeff VanderMeer (2018) – the study identifies that various demarcational means fail to fulfill their binary making function due to the vastness and unmappable nature of environments such as Area X. …”
