Intermittent cyanobacterial accumulation reshapes water column sulfur cycling and favors sulfur-oxidizing denitrifiers in freshwater lake mesocosms.

Recent studies have established that cyanobacterial bloom biomass (CBB) decomposition critically drives sulfur cycling in the water column of shallow lakes. While CBB can accumulate via single pulses or intermittent inputs depending on hydroclimatic conditions, how these distinct patterns affect sulfur cycling remains...
