dc.description.abstractHigh-altitude wetland holds unique peatland ponds subjected to extreme diel environmental condition changes. Herein, we evaluate the response of photoautotrophic and nitrification activities and compare it with bacteria and archaea composition shifts in sediment and water changes during key hours of the day. Results indicate the presence of photo-inhibition, including ammonia oxidizers, but a high recovery of photosynthetic activities in the microbial mat and of potential specific functional groups towards the afternoon. The microbial community was composed of 45 phyla, mainly proteobacteria from Alpha-, Delta-, and Gammaproteobacteria and Bacteroidota in the water and sediments, and these later groups were notoriously enriched during the afternoon. The microbial community composition changes were associated with chlorophyll a, nutrients, and greenhouse gases reservoir variability, including methane potential release towards the atmosphere at hours of high radiation. Peatland pond microbial communities and their biogeochemical contribution change in a complex interplay coupled by time to environmental conditions predominantly driven by the extreme solar radiation.
