The diversity of microbial extremophiles [PDF]
, 2016 Extreme environments are defined as those habitats in which human life is not possible. Thus, from a human point of view, those forms of life thriving in those conditions will be called as "extremophiles".

Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective
Oikos, EarlyView.The pursuit of a multi‐planetary existence represents one of humanity's greatest frontiers. If applied justly, it offers an opportunity to extend its civilization's lifespan amid escalating sustainability crises on Earth. One approach increasingly gaining traction is terraforming, a hitherto theoretical ecological and evolutionary experiment revolving ...

Geographical Variation in Thermal Adaptation of the Asiatic Toad (Bufo gargarizans)
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Northern and southern populations of Bufo gargarizans exhibit coordinated divergence in thermal preference, resting metabolic rate, and TRPM4 temperature sensitivity along a climatic gradient. ABSTRACT Thermal adaptation in animals can manifest in multiple dimensions, yet few studies have integrated behavioral, physiological, and molecular perspectives

Why are nematodes so successful extremophiles?
Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2021 Extreme environments constitute the largest habitat on earth, but our understanding of life in such environments is rudimentary. The hostility of extreme environments such as the deep sea, earth’s crust, and toxic lakes limits the sampling, culturing ...

Remarkable ecological and physiological diversity of the hyperthermophiles populating neighboring solfataric pools revealed by metagenomic analysis [PDF]
, 2014 The study of the complex communities of hyperthermophiles, composed of Bacteria, Archaea, and viruses, populating volcanic sites is of interest to understand their adaptation and evolution to extreme conditions and as a rich source of biocatalysts [1, 2].
