Ectoenzymatic activity and glucose heterotrophic metabolism in a shallow estuary (Ria de Aveiro, Portugal): influence of bed sediments and salt marshes

Bacterioplankton abundance and activity were studied in the estuarine system of Ria de Aveiro (Portugal) to test if tidal resuspension of sediments and transport of particles from the salt marshes may act as factors of variability of bacterial communities. The total and attached cell abundance, ecto...
