Workshop to develop deep-life continental scientific drilling projects [PDF]
Scientific Drilling, 2015 The International Continental Scientific Drilling Program (ICDP) has long espoused studies of deep subsurface life, and has targeted fundamental questions regarding subsurface life, including the following: "(1) What is the extent and diversity of deep ...

Viable cyanobacteria in the deep continental subsurface [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2018 Cyanobacteria are ecologically versatile microorganisms inhabiting most environments, ranging from marine systems to arid deserts. Although they possess several pathways for light-independent energy generation, until now their ecological range appeared to be restricted to environments with at least occasional exposure to sunlight.

Microbial activities in deep subsurface environments [PDF]
Geomicrobiology Journal, 1989 Abstract Activities of microorganisms residing in terrestrial deep subsurface sediments were examined in 46 sediment samples from three boreholes. Radiolabeled time course experiments assessing in situ microbial activities were initiated within 30 min of core recovery.

The deep continental subsurface: the dark biosphere [PDF]
International Microbiology, 2018 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.

Parametrization of stochastic inputs using generative adversarial networks with application in geology [PDF]
, 2019 We investigate artificial neural networks as a parametrization tool for stochastic inputs in numerical simulations. We address parametrization from the point of view of emulating the data generating process, instead of explicitly constructing a ...

Predicting Water Cycle Characteristics from Percolation Theory and Observational Data. [PDF]
, 2020 The fate of water and water-soluble toxic wastes in the subsurface is of high importance for many scientific and practical applications. Although solute transport is proportional to water flow rates, theoretical and experimental studies show that heavy ...
