Researchers at the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has made important advances in elucidating the temporal relationships between lake fish multidimensional diversity and ecosystem multifunctionality, as well as the key roles of non-native fishes.
Researchers revealed the key roles of submerged macrophyte species diversity and community phosphorus stoichiometric homeostasis (HP) in multidimensional stability under algal bloom disturbances, and provided a new perspective for predicting the responses of submerged macrophyte-dominated lake ecosystems to the increasingly frequent algal bloom events today.
A research group led by Prof. CAO Te from the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, determined that—under pulsed NH4-N stress—a submerged-macrophyte coverage of 39–51% is required to preserve the clear-water regime.
Thanks to the three-pronged strategy and the measures taken to protect and restore the Yangtze River, including the Yangtze River Protection Law and the 10-year fishing ban, the Yangtze finless porpoise population has rebounded in recent years.
Prof. WANG Ding, Secretary-General of MAB China and a researcher at the lnstitute of Hydrobiology under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, joined the Changjiang Dialogue to weign in the conservation efforts of Yangtze finless porpoises.
After years of ex-situ conservation, endangered finless porpoises are now being reintroduced into China's Yangtze River! They are learning to swim and hunt in currents, and adapt to ship noises.
CMB2025 provided a dynamic platform for researchers from around the world to share their latest findings, foster collaborations, and discuss future directions in ciliate molecular biology.
Concluding the lecture, Professor Erős called for enhanced legal and institutional safeguards from the perspective of European policy and international cooperation to promote transregional and transboundary freshwater ecological protection.
The workshop focused on adapting China's successful Yangtze finless porpoise protection model to safeguard the critically endangered Irrawaddy dolphin populations in the Mekong River.
Xie and his team inspected the construction progress on site, learning about existing challenges and offering guidance.
This training aimed to strengthen researchers’ awareness of archives management and promote high-quality development of archival practices at IHB.
Prof. Hao began by highlighting the necessity of developing innovative water treatment processes from the perspective of ecological sustainability, which is essential for supporting sustainable human development.
I am proud to be part of an excellent interdisciplinary team, collaborating with experts in molecular genetics, structural biology, cell biology, and microbiology.
