The Fennoscandian Shield deep terrestrial virosphere suggests slow motion ‘boom and burst’ cycles [PDF]
Karin Holmfeldt et al. sequence metagenomes and metatranscriptomes of viruses in deep groundwaters down to 448 m below the surface. The results reveal ecological dynamics of viruses including slow motion ‘boom and burst’ cycles and a ‘kill the winner ...

HETEROGENEOUS LITHOSPHERIC STRUCTURE OF THE FENNOSCANDIAN SHIELD: SEISMIC DATA
A generalization has been obtained based on the data for deep seismic studies on longitudinal DSS profiles (explosion seismology) and seismological evidence found for local and distant earthquakes (earthquake seismology) in the Fennoscandian Shield over ...

Terrigenous dissolved organic matter persists in the energy-limited deep groundwaters of the Fennoscandian Shield [PDF]
Dissolved organic matter in the Fennoscandian Shield deep continental bedrock fracture waters of varying characteristics and ages carries a strong terrigenous signature, and only a small proportion of this potential energy source links to the deep ...

Energy efficiency and biological interactions define the core microbiome of deep oligotrophic groundwater [PDF]
Ecological constraints on microbial niches in oligotrophic deep groundwaters remain elusive. This study provides support for the existence of a common core microbiome in two deep groundwater biomes of the Fennoscandian Shield using a genome-resolved ...

Precambrian lithospheric evolution of the Fennoscandian Shield
Generalized reconstructions have been made on the basis of integrated DSS and CDP data and seismological evidence of local and remote earthquakes obtained for the Fennoscandian Shield over the last forty years.

Seismic situation in the northern parts of the Karelian craton (Fennoscandian Shield)
The seismic situation in the northern parts of the Karelian craton (Fennoscandian Shield) was studied. The geological structure of the territory is briefly described. The events of natural and man-made genesis recorded by seismic stations of the Karelian

Some features of deformation structures in an esker on the southern margin of the Fennoscandian shield [PDF]
As a result of melting of the last ice sheet in the southeastern edge of the Fennoscandian shield, ridge structures called eskers were formed. One of these eskers is the subject of our study.

Subsurface Life on Earth as a Key to Unlock Extraterrestrial Mysteries. [PDF]
This paper discusses current research on subsurface microbiology. Exploring Earth's deep and extreme subsurface environments provides critical insights into life's limits and adaptability. Subsurface exploration is not only vital for understanding the origins and limits of life on Earth, but also crucial for informing future missions in the search for ...
