    In pelagic ecosystems, phytoplankton extracellular release can extensively subsidize the heterotrophic prokaryotic carbon demand. Time-course experiments were carried out to quantify primary production, phytoplankton excretion, and the microbial uptake of freshly released dissolved organic carbon (DOC) derived from phytoplankton extracellular release (DOCp) in four large tropical lakes distributed along a productivity gradient: Kivu, Edward, Albert, and Victoria. The contributions of the major heterotrophic bacterial groups to the uptake of DOCp was also analyzed in Lake Kivu, using microautoradiography coupled to catalyzed reporter deposition fluorescent in situ hybridization. The percentage of extracellular release (PER) varied across the productivity gradient, with higher values at low productivity. Furthermore, PER was significantly related to high light and low phosphate concentrations in the mixed layer and was comparatively higher in oligotrophic tropical lakes than in their temperate counterparts. Both observations suggest that environmental factors play a key role in the control of phytoplankton excretion. Standing stocks of DOCp were small and generally contributed less than 1% to the total DOC because it was rapidly assimilated by prokaryotes. In other words, there was a tight coupling between the production and the heterotrophic consumption of DOCp. None of the major phylogenetic bacterial groups that were investigated differed in their ability to take up DOCp, in contrast with earlier results reported for standard labeled single-molecule substrates (leucine, glucose, adenosine triphosphate). It supports the idea that the metabolic ability to use DOCp is widespread among heterotrophic prokaryotes. Overall, these results highlight the importance of carbon transfer between phytoplankton and bacterioplankton in large African lakes.AFRIVAL - EAGLES East African Great Lake Ecosystem Sensitivity to Changes - CAKI Cycle du Carbone et des Nutriments au Lac Kivu - MICKI Microbial Diversity and Processes in Lake Kiv

    Kekerasan seksual merupakan kejahatan kesusilaan dengan sengaja merusak kesopanan yang mengintimidasi seseorang untuk berhubungan seksualitas dengan cara memaksa. Maraknya pelaku kejahatan seksual anak adalah orang terdekat dari lingkungannya. Dalam penelitian ini dikaji bagaimana putusan hakim dalam mewujudkan perlindungan anak Korban Tindak Pidana Kekerasan Seksual dalam Rumah Tangga oleh Orang Tua. Anak dalam rumah tangga perlu dilindungi dari tindak pidana kekerasan seksual oleh orang tua. Dalam pasal Pasal 81 ayat (1) dan (3) Undang-Undang Nomor 35 tahun 2014 tentang Perlindungan Anak. Maka, harusnya hakim memutus pasal pemberatan oleh kekerasan seksual yang dilakukan oleh orang tua. Namun, dalam studi kasus ini hakim tidak menerapkan pasal pemberatan. Hakim dalam menjatuhkan putusan yang ringan atau setengah dari ancaman maksimal. Penulis tertarik dalam mengkaji kasus kekerasan seksual pada anak sebagai korban adalah hubungan seorang anak dengan ayah kandung dimana anak tersebut dipergunakan sebagai sebuah objek seksualitas. Dilihat dari legal issue dalam penelitian ini adalah bahwa belum ada makna yang jelas atau implementasi yang jelas tentang pemberatan yang ditambah 1/3 dari ancaman pidana pokok mengingat Unsur sebagaimana dilakukan oleh Orang Tua dalam putusan hakim

    peer reviewedTo determine the contribution of food ingestion (trophic pathway) to PCB contamination of zooplankton in the river Meuse (Belgium), we used 14 C-labelled algae (Dictyosphaerium ehrenbergianum) to measure ingestion and assimilation rates in the rotifer species Brachionus calyciflorus . When the concentration of algae in the culture medium varied from 20 103 to 200 103 algal cells ml -1 (0.12 to 1 .18 mg C 1 - '), the Brachionus calyciflorus ingestion rate varied from 0 .25 ± 0 .12 to 1 .52 ± 0 .43 ng C ind -1 h-1 at 15 °C and from 0 .74 ± 0 .17 to 5 .93 ± 0.61 ng Cind-' h-1 at 20 °C . The assimilation efficiency (ratio of the assimilation rate to the ingestion rate) measured in a culture medium containing 200 103 algal cells ml`' was 55 .7 ± 5.8%. Since the PCB concentration measured in the phytoplankton of the river Meuse is about 3 pg PCBs g -1 D.W., the estimated PCB contamination of zooplankton ascribable to the trophic pathway ranges from 0 .22 ± 0 .17 to 1 .31 ± 0.77 jag PCBs g -1 D.W. at 15 °C and from 0.64 ± 0 .34 to 5 .10 ± 2 .10 pg PCBs g -1 D. W. at 20'C . The lower figure based on measurements effected at 20 ° C is comparable to the actual level measured in zooplankton samples collected in the river Meuse (0 .69 ± 0.20 pg PCBs g`' D.W.) . The applicability of the formula used in our estimate was checked in a 48-hour in vitro experiment in which the rotifers were fed contaminated algae . The PCB accumulation measured in the rotifers was found to coincide with the calculated PCB contamination . Additional experiments were carried out to determine the contribution of the direct pathway to PCB contamination of zooplankton living in the river Meuse (0.02 pg PCBs 1-1 of water; average dissolved organic matter : 3 mg C 1 -1 ). The PCB concentration in zooplankton resulting from direct uptake of PCBs from the water was estimated at 0 .19 ± 0.05 jug PCBs g -1 D.W. These results show that in zooplankton living in polluted ecosystems, PCBs are likely to accumulate via the trophic pathway to concentrations up to 30 times higher than by direct contamination . Furthermore, our estimates of PCB contamination via the trophic pathway coincide quite well with actual concentrations measured in situ

    We report organic and inorganic carbon distributions and fluxes in a large (>2000 km2) oligotrophic, tropical lake (Lake Kivu, East Africa), acquired during four field surveys, that captured the seasonal variations (March 2007–mid rainy season, September 2007–late dry season, June 2008–early dry season, and April 2009–late rainy season). The partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2) in surface waters of the main basin of Lake Kivu showed modest spatial (coefficient of variation between 3% and 6%), and seasonal variations with an amplitude of 163 ppm (between 579±23 ppm on average in March 2007 and 742±28 ppm on average in September 2007). The most prominent spatial feature of the pCO2 distribution was the very high pCO2 values in Kabuno Bay (a small sub-basin with little connection to the main lake) ranging between 11213 ppm and 14213 ppm (between 18 and 26 times higher than in the main basin). Surface waters of the main basin of Lake Kivu were a net source of CO2 to the atmosphere at an average rate of 10.8 mmol m−2 d−1, which is lower than the global average reported for freshwater, saline, and volcanic lakes. In Kabuno Bay, the CO2 emission to the atmosphere was on average 500.7 mmol m−2 d−1 (~46 times higher than in the main basin). Based on whole-lake mass balance of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) bulk concentrations and of its stable carbon isotope composition, we show that the epilimnion of Lake Kivu was net autotrophic. This is due to the modest river inputs of organic carbon owing to the small ratio of catchment area to lake surface area (2.15). The carbon budget implies that the CO2 emission to the atmosphere must be sustained by DIC inputs of geogenic origin from deep geothermal springs.AFRIVA
