Planktonic and sediment-associated aerobic methanotrophs in two seep systems along the North American margin [PDF]
Methane vents are of significant geochemical and ecological importance. Notable progress has been made towards understanding anaerobic methane oxidation in marine sediments, however, the diversity and distribution of aerobic methanotrophs in the water ...

An RNA-based study of the distribution of ammonia-oxidizing microorganisms in vertical sediment
Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) play crucial roles in ammonia nitrogen degradation in freshwater lake sediment.

Abstract Biological nitrogen fixation in symbiotic diazotrophs is subject to oxygen regulation by an oxygen‐sensing FixLJ two‐component system under micro‐oxic conditions. However, it remains unclear whether this mechanism is conserved in free‐living diazotrophs.

Overcoming organic and nitrogen overload in thermophilic anaerobic digestion of pig slurry by coupling a microbial electrolysis cell [PDF]
The combination of the anaerobic digestion (AD) process with a microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) coupled to an ammonia stripping unit as a post-treatment was assessed both in series operation, to improve the quality of the effluent, and in loop ...

ABSTRACT Veterinary medicines, which reach the soil mostly through the application of contaminated manures, can affect beneficial soil microorganisms, such as nitrogen‐fixing rhizobia bacteria, which engage in important symbiotic associations with plants.

Diversity of Ammonia Oxidizing Archaea in Tropical Compost Systems
Composting is widely used to transform waste materials into valuable agricultural products. In the tropics, large quantities of agricultural wastes could be potentially useful in agriculture after composting.

Prebiotic aqueous reactions catalyzed by native nickel without hydrogen
Serpentinizing (H2‐producing) hydrothermal vents are candidate environments for metabolic origin. They generate highly reducing conditions that convert CO2 to formate and methane in abiotic reactions resembling reactions of the acetyl‐CoA pathway of CO2 fixation. They also contain natural catalysts. Native nickel (Ni0), like Fe0, Co0, and their alloys,

Nitrification-denitrification in WSP: a mechanism for permanent nitrogen removal in maturation ponds [PDF]
A pilot-scale primary maturation pond was spiked with 15N-labelled ammonia (15NH4Cl) and 15N labelled nitrite (Na15NO2), in order to improve current understanding of the dynamics of inorganic nitrogen transformations and removal in WSP systems.
