An Atacama subsurface tephra layer reveals how life colonized Kenorland in the Neoarchean
Much has been published on the microbiology of the Atacama Desert, the driest and oldest place on Earth, but little is known about how microbial life is able to permanently colonize this extremely harsh environment.

Fog_Hive© : 3D fog collection along the coastal Atacama desert [PDF]
The provision of drinking water turns out to be one of the great challenges for the future because central water supply systems cannot technically or logistically be implemented. FogHive©'s main aim is stopping desertification by repairing endangered fog

Abstract Premise Species of Deuterocohnia (17 spp.) show extraordinary variation in elevation (0–3900 m a.s.l.) and growth forms, and many have narrow geographic distributions in the west‐central Andes and the Peru‐Chile coast. Previous research using few plastid and nuclear loci failed to produce well‐resolved or supported phylogenies.

Towards a material‐dialogic theory of climate teacher education: A global North–South dialogue
Abstract This paper develops a novel theoretical stance for reimagining initial teacher education (ITE) through genuine North–South dialogue that challenges dominant Global North paradigms in teacher education. Drawing on collaborative inquiry between researchers from England and Chile, we synthesise material‐dialogic space theory (derived from Global ...

Sediments, unlithified and lithified microbial mats in the Salar de Atacama, are formed by similar pathways involving coupled precipitation of authigenic Mg silicate and calcium carbonate. Differences in products reflect differences in the initial distribution of organic biomass.

Atacama Desert’s Solastalgia: Color and Water for Dumping
The blooming desert or ‘El desierto florido’ in Spanish, is a millenarian climate pattern caused by El Niño that warms the surface waters in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean and creates the conditions for rain in the Altiplano and the Atacama Desert, north of Chile.

Bacterial diversity in hyperarid Atacama Desert soils [PDF]
Surface and subsurface soil samples analyzed for this investigation were collected from the hyperarid Yungay region in the Atacama Desert, Chile. This report details the bacterial diversity derived from DNA and PLFA extracted directly from these extremely desiccated soils.

Observing CMB polarisation through ice [PDF]
Ice crystal clouds in the upper troposphere can generate polarisation signals at the uK level. This signal can seriously affect very sensitive ground based searches for E- and B-mode of Cosmic Microwave Background polarisation.
