Science China Earth Sciences, 2011
Over the past two decades, scientific drilling into sediments and rocks in the ocean and the continent has revealed the presence of physiologically and phylogenetically complex microbial life in the deep subsurface. Microorganisms, most of which have no cultured or known relatives in the surface biosphere, have been discovered in sediments and rock at ...

Science, 1996
Recent work in Earth system science shows that living organisms have much more of an influence on the composition of solid Earth than had ever been anticipated. Fyfe reviews the results that point to the presence of influential microorganisms several kilometers deep into the solid Earth.

The deep subterranean biosphere
Earth-Science Reviews, 1993Abstract The main purpose with this review is to summarise present research on the microbiology of deep subterranean environments, deeper than 50–100 m. Included are mainly studies where drilling, excavation, core sampling and ground water sampling have been made for research.

Radionuclide Geomicrobiology of the Deep Biosphere
Geomicrobiology Journal, 2011This review summarizes research into interactions between microorganisms and radionuclides under conditions typical of a repository for high-level radioactive waste in deep hard rock environments at a depth of approximately 500 m. The cell–radionuclide interactions of strains of two bacterial species (i.e., Shewanella putrefaciens and Desulfovibrio ...

Trends in Microbiology, 2001
Recent findings suggest the possibility of a previously unknown ecosystem – a ‘deep, cold biosphere’. US and Russian researchers had previously detected bacteria frozen in ice-core samples from the depths of Lake Vostoc, but newer evidence suggests that microbial communities could be active and living in the Antarctic ice.

The deep subsurface biosphere is alive and well
Trends in Microbiology, 2005For the first time, metabolically active bacterial cells have recently been quantified in deep marine sediments. In contrast to previous total cell counts that do not differentiate between active cells and inactive or dormant cells, these quantifications using oligonucleotide hybridization probes target active cells and their ribosomal (r)RNA.

Microbial Life of the Deep Biosphere
2014This book brings together a variety of topics, covering the broad range of issues that are associated with deep biosphere exploration. In order to explain our observations from deep subsurface ecosystems it is necessary to develop interdisciplinary approaches, ranging from microbiology and geochemistry to physics and modeling.
