Journal Title：Aquatic Microbial Ecology

AME is international and interdisciplinary. It presents rigorously refereed and carefully selected Research Articles, Reviews and Notes, as well as Comments/Reply Comments (for details see AME 27:209), Opinion Pieces (previously called 'As I See It') and AME Specials. For details consult the Guidelines for Authors. Papers may be concerned with:

Tolerances and responses of microorganisms to variations in abiotic and biotic components of their environment; microbial life under extreme environmental conditions (climate, temperature, pressure, osmolarity, redox, etc.).

Role of aquatic microorganisms in the production, transformation and decomposition of organic matter; flow patterns of energy and matter as these pass through microorganisms; population dynamics; trophic interrelationships; modelling, both theoretical and via computer simulation, of individual microorganisms and microbial populations; biodiversity.

Absorption and transformation of inorganic material; synthesis and transformation of organic material (autotrophic and heterotrophic); non-genetic and genetic adaptation; behaviour; molecular microbial ecology; symbioses.

AME 是国际性和跨学科的。它提供了经过严格审查和精心挑选的研究文章、评论和注释，以及评论/回复评论（详见 AME 27:209）、意见文章（以前称为“我所见”）和 AME 特刊。有关详细信息，请参阅作者指南。论文可能涉及：

微生物对其环境中非生物和生物成分变化的耐受性和反应；极端环境条件（气候、温度、压力、渗透压、氧化还原等）下的微生物生命。

水生微生物在有机物生产、转化和分解中的作用；能量和物质通过微生物时的流动模式；人口动态；营养关系；通过理论和计算机模拟对单个微生物和微生物种群进行建模；生物多样性。
