These conditions interact with ice-cover duration to shape microbial processes in temperate lakes and ultimately influence the phenology of community and ecosystem processes. We review the current knowledge on microorganisms in seasonally frozen lakes. Specifically, we highlight how under-ice conditions alter lake physics and the ways that this can affect the distribution and metabolism of auto-and heterotrophic microorganisms. We identify functional traits that we hypothesize are important for understanding under-ice dynamics and discuss how these traits influence species interactions. As ice coverage duration has already been seen to reduce as air temperatures have warmed, the dynamics of the under-ice microbiome are important for understanding and predicting the dynamics and functioning of seasonally frozen lakes in the near future.}, language = {en} } @article{KrohEllerSchoetzetal.2022, author = {Kroh, Daniel and Eller, Fabian and Sch{\"o}tz, Konstantin and Wedler, Stefan and Perdig{\´o}n-Toro, Lorena and Freychet, Guillaume and Wei, Qingya and D{\"o}rr, Maximilian and Jones, David and Zou, Yingping and Herzig, Eva M. and Neher, Dieter and K{\"o}hler, Anna}, title = {Identifying the signatures of intermolecular interactions in blends of PM6 with Y6 and N4 using absorption spectroscopy}, series = {Advanced functional materials}, volume = {32}, journal = {Advanced functional materials}, number = {44}, publisher = {Wiley-VCH}, address = {Weinheim}, issn = {1616-301X}, doi = {10.1002/adfm.202205711}, pages = {14}, year = {2022}, abstract = {In organic solar cells, the resulting device efficiency depends strongly on the local morphology and intermolecular interactions of the blend film. Optical spectroscopy was used to identify the spectral signatures of interacting chromophores in blend films of the donor polymer PM6 with two state-of-the-art nonfullerene acceptors, Y6 and N4, which differ merely in the branching point of the side chain. From temperature-dependent absorption and luminescence spectroscopy in solution, it is inferred that both acceptor materials form two types of aggregates that differ in their interaction energy. Y6 forms an aggregate with a predominant J-type character in solution, while for N4 molecules the interaction is predominantly in a H-like manner in solution and freshly spin-cast film, yet the molecules reorient with respect to each other with time or thermal annealing to adopt a more J-type interaction. The different aggregation behavior of the acceptor materials is also reflected in the blend films and accounts for the different solar cell efficiencies reported with the two blends.}, language = {en} } @misc{ArboledaZapataAngelopoulosOverduinetal.2022, author = {Arboleda-Zapata, Mauricio and Angelopoulos, Michael and Overduin, Pier Paul and Grosse, Guido and Jones, Benjamin M. and Tronicke, Jens}, title = {Exploring the capabilities of electrical resistivity tomography to study subsea permafrost}, series = {Zweitver{\"o}ffentlichungen der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, journal = {Zweitver{\"o}ffentlichungen der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, number = {1285}, issn = {1866-8372}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-57123}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-571234}, pages = {4423 -- 4445}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Sea level rise and coastal erosion have inundated large areas of Arctic permafrost.

In this study, we use data from 2D electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) collected in the nearshore coastal zone of two Arctic regions that differ in their environmental conditions (e.g., seawater depth and resistivity) to image and study the subsea permafrost. The inversion of 2D ERT data sets is commonly performed using deterministic approaches that favor smoothed solutions, which are typically interpreted using a user-specified resistivity threshold to identify the IBPT position. In contrast, to target the IBPT position directly during inversion, we use a layer-based model parameterization and a global optimization approach to invert our ERT data. This approach results in ensembles of layered 2D model solutions, which we use to identify the IBPT and estimate the resistivity of the unfrozen and frozen sediments, including estimates of uncertainties. Additionally, we globally invert 1D synthetic resistivity data and perform sensitivity analyses to study, in a simpler way, the correlations and influences of our model parameters.
