Ancient and Modern Geochemical Signatures in the 13,500-Year Sedimentary Record of Lake Cadagno
Although lake sediments are globally important organic carbon sinks and therefore important habitats for deep microbial life, the deep lacustrine biosphere has thus far been little studied compared to its marine counterpart.

Genomes of three bacteriophages from the deep subsurface aquifer
Viral particles have been detected in the underground biosphere where they could be one of the main factors impacting microbial diversity, biogeochemistry and evolution.

Microbes in marine sediments detected and counted by direct observation of membrane-filtered sediment samples stained with acridine orange. This technique can still be applied to high-biomass (> 105 cells/cm3) sedimentary habitats, such as organic-rich ...

Deglacial carbon cycle changes observed in a compilation of 127 benthic δ13C time series (20–6 ka) [PDF]
We present a compilation of 127 time series δ13C records from Cibicides wuellerstorfi spanning the last deglaciation (20–6 ka) which is well-suited for reconstructing large-scale carbon cycle changes, especially for comparison with isotope ...

New Water Oxidation Mechanism in Photosystem II Resolves Major Experimental Controversies
In Photosystem II Oxygen Evolving Complex, we discovered the O3‐O6 peroxide at lower energy. Assignment of the O3 ligated by histidine (His337) as a slow exchanging substrate and its coupling with O6 give the O─O bond formation mechanism most consistent with all currently available experimental data. Proposal shows how protein environment can steer the

Cultural Values of Landscapes in the Practical Work of Biosphere Reserves
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the role of the landscape’s cultural values in the practical work of biosphere reserves and to identify what opportunities there are to increase awareness and knowledge about these values.

New perspectives in benthic deep-sea microbial ecology
Deep-sea ecosystems represent the largest and most remote biome of the biosphere. They play a fundamental role in global biogeochemical cycles and their functions allow existence of life on our planet. In the last 20 years enormous progress has been made

IntroductionLong-term stability of underground CO2 storage is partially affected by microbial activity but our knowledge of these effects is limited, mainly due to a lack of sites. A consistently high flux of mantle-derived CO2 makes the Eger Rift in the

The deep continental subsurface: the dark biosphere [PDF]
Although information from devoted geomicrobiological drilling studies is limited, it is clear that the results obtained so far call for a systematic exploration of the deep continental subsurface, similar to what has been accomplished in recent years by the Ocean Drilling Initiatives.

Abstract Germany's Renewable Energy Sources Act (REA), enacted in 2000 and subsequently amended, subsidized national renewable energy production with fixed feed‐in tariffs for renewable energy sources (RE) from wind, solar, and biogas. Empirical studies suggest that the policy was creating windfall effects for landowners and attribute farmland use ...
