Prof. Xingchen (Tony) Wang co-authors a paper on microbial succession and dynamics in Mono Lake (California) following an El Niño event

Mono Lake is a closed‐basin, hypersaline, alkaline lake located in Eastern Sierra Nevada, California. Its unique ecosystem offers a natural laboratory for probing microbial community responses to environmental changes. In 2017, a heavy snowpack and subsequent runoff led Mono Lake to transition from annually mixed (monomictic)  to indefinitely stratified (meromictic). A new article coauthored by Prof. Xingchen (Tony) Wang investigated microbial succession during this limnological shift, using a muilt-year water‐column time series of geochemical and microbiological data. This article, entitled "Microbial succession and dynamics in meromictic Mono Lake, California", was published in Geobiology. For more information, please visit Prof. Wang's website.
