Dynamic patterns exhibited stronger physiological responses, with mean absolute effect sizes across survival, growth, development, behavior, and stress functional categories following the order heatwave > fluctuation > +3 °C > +1 °C. Response profiles varied among warming patterns: constant +3 °C induced moderate and broad changes across biochemical stress, developmental, and behavioral end points; heatwave accelerated zebrafish hatching and C. kiiensis pupation while increasing deformity, suppressing growth, and elevating mortality; and fluctuation induced pronounced biochemical stress responses, particularly HSP70, together with developmental disruption, while producing weaker survival and growth effects than heatwave. Across taxa, dominant response profiles differed, with broad multiend point disruption in D. magna, stress-dominant responses in C. kiiensis, and developmental sensitivity in zebrafish.

For both EC and CC, silica removal capacity increased2- to 5-fold with rising pH. Characterization of precipitates showedthat the pH-dependent increase in silica removal capacity was drivenby Al−O−Si bond formation and silicic acid polymerization.A novel titration method revealed that at pH ≤ 8.0, silicabinding occurred via η−OH2+ activatedsites on aluminum precipitate, whereas at pH 10.0, binding resultedfrom reactions among partially deprotonated η−OH sites,bound silica, and silanol groups. Silica removal mechanisms were validatedusing synthetic brackish groundwater, where synergistic interactionsbetween aluminum and Ca2+/Mg2+ substantiallyincreased silica removal.

Radiocarbon-inferred SOC persistence did not differ significantly between topsoil (0–10 cm) and subsoil (40–60 cm) across climate zones and wetland types, with mean Δ14C values of −179.0 ± 155.5‰ and −200.9 ± 161.8‰, respectively (p > 0.05). Interactions among climate, vegetation, and soil biogeochemistry explained about 55% of the variation in SOC persistence in both topsoil and subsoil. Both layers exhibited comparable sensitivity to mean annual temperature and precipitation. However, the inferred regulatory pathways differed between soil layers, with stronger direct climatic effects in topsoil and greater indirect mediation through soil physicochemical and mineral-associated processes in subsoil. Across spatial climatic gradients, higher mean annual temperature and precipitation were associated with greater SOC accumulation but lower persistence, suggesting a potential trade-off between SOC quantity and persistence.
