(författare) Adaption of microbial communities to the hostile environment in the Doce River after the collapse of two iron ore tailing dams 2020 Ingår i: Heliyon. - : Elsevier. - 2405-8440. ; 6:8, s. 1-16 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract In November 2015, two iron ore tailing dams collapsed in the city of Mariana, Brazil.

Shortly after the incident, several reports informed that the concentration of metals in the water was above acceptable legal limits under Brazilian laws.

Amoebozoans increased in mud samples, reaching 49% of microeukaryote abundance, with Discosea and Lobosa groups being the most abundant. The microbial communities' structure in mud samples changed adapting to the new environment condition. The characterization of microbial communities and metal-tolerant organisms from such impacted environments is essential for understanding the ecological consequences of massive anthropogenic impacts and strategies for the restoration of contaminated sites such as the Doce River.
