Current understanding of electroautotrophy and its relevance in astrobiology-related research. [PDF]
Abstract Electroautotrophy—the use of extracellular electrons as the primary energy source for autotrophic metabolism—remains understudied compared to photoautotrophy and chemoautotrophy. Its occurrence in deep‐earth and deep‐sea environments suggests profound implications for astrobiology, yet electroautotrophic microorganisms remain poorly explored ...

The Role of N2 as a Geo-Biosignature for the Detection and Characterization of Earth-like Habitats [PDF]
Since the Archean, N2 has been a major atmospheric constituent in Earth's atmosphere. Nitrogen is an essential element in the building blocks of life, therefore the geobiological nitrogen cycle is a fundamental factor in the long term evolution of both ...

The Influence of Stellar Phosphorus on Our Understanding of Exoplanets and Astrobiology [PDF]
When searching for exoplanets and ultimately considering their habitability, it is necessary to consider the planet’s composition, geophysical processes, and geochemical cycles in order to constrain the bioessential elements available to life ...
