- W2525407876 abstract "The role of meiofauna on the functioning of riverine biofilms was examined by studying their potential effect on nitrogen consumption capacity of biofilms in four experiments (Chapters 2 and 3: epilithic phototrophic biofilms; Chapters 4 and 5: heterotrophic biofilms of hyporheic zone). Biofilms are subjected to (1) different levels of densities (meiofauna) and nutrient enrichment or (2) different levels of diversity (biofilm/meiofauna/macrofauna). A part of the microcosms of each level of diversity was exposed to the effect of an herbicide, diuron. Overall, biofilm-associated meiofauna in microcosms was dominated by rotifers. Results in phototrophic biofilms showed that the response of rotifers to short-term nutrient enrichment was significant increases in their density and biomass. In addition, N-NO3 uptake rates appeared significantly higher in microcosms with highest meiofauna densities. This positive effect of meiofauna on biofilm N-NO3 uptake was also found in hyporheic biofilm microcosms, but not under the effect of diuron. Therefore, this thesis highlights that meiofauna can have a significant role in nitrogen consumption processes by lotic biofilms. In addition, the results strongly suggest that invertebrates interact with microorganisms involved in the reduction processes of nitrogen concentrations in the phototrophic biofilm as well as the hyporheic biofilm. Finally, the herbicide exposure resulted in a significant modification of N-NO3 uptake rate in hyporheic microcosms. However, the comparison of the average N- NO3 uptake rate between treatments exposed to herbicide and those unexposed, showed that the presence of invertebrates (meiofauna + macrofauna) significantly reduced the effect of diuron on these processes. This study highlights the potentially important role of microorganism-invertebrate interactions (1) in the nitrogen cycle of biofilms and thus functions related to their contribution to the self-purification process in streams, and (2) in resilient capacity of the hyporheic ecosystem to chemical perturbations." @default.
