A tale of two microbialites: Stromatolites and microbially induced sedimentary structures

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microbialites are biosedimentary structures built by microbial mats. Five microbialite groups are distinguished: stromatolites, thrombolites, dendrolites, leiloites and microbially induced sedimentary structures (MISS). This contribution discusses the two most abundant microbialite groups in marine settings, stromatolites and MISS.

Modern microbial landscape: Aerial mapping of microbially induced sedimentary structures forming in a coastal sabkha

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microbially induced sedimentary structures (MISS) are considered important for understanding primitive life on Earth and for guiding the search for life on other planets. These structures are regarded as macroscopic fossils of early communities of unicellular organisms that did not produce skeletons or shells. In this study, field observations

“Is This Edible Anyway?” The Impact of Culture on the Evolution (and Devolution) of Mushroom Knowledge

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Mushrooms are a ubiquitous and essential component in our biological environment and have been of interest to humans around the globe for millennia. Knowledge about mushrooms represents a prime example of cumulative culture, one of the key processes in human evolution.

Comparative Evaluation of Single and Combined Adsorption and Peroxone Processes for Taste and Odour Control in Reservoir Water

open access: yesWater and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Taste and odour compounds (T&O), particularly 2‐methylisoborneol (2‐MIB) and geosmin, pose persistent challenges in drinking water treatment, as conventional methods often achieve limited removal. This study provides a comparative evaluation of five treatment strategies: activated carbon (AC) adsorption, sulfonic acid‐modified activated carbon
