Differential response of high-elevation planktonic bacterial community structure and metabolism to experimental nutrient enrichment.

Nutrient enrichment of high-elevation freshwater ecosystems by atmospheric deposition is increasing worldwide, and bacteria are a key conduit for the metabolism of organic matter in these oligotrophic environments. We conducted two distinct in situ microcosm experiments in a high-elevation lake (Eme...
