Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Subsurface Archaea associated with rapid geobiological change in a model Yellowstone hot spring
Communications Earth & Environment, 2022 Depth-resolved geochemical and metagenomic analyses of a model hot spring in Yellowstone reveals the presence of an archaeal-dominated subsurface microbiome, which likely contributed to a dramatic acidification of the spring in 2018.

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

Surface hydration‐induced damage in tight oil‐bearing sandy conglomerate reservoirs
Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.A series of techniques such as X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy‐dispersive spectroscopy, conductivity tests, and infrared thermal imaging were used. The key findings are the identification of a two‐stage surface hydration process and the elucidation of the effects of various minerals and elements on the hydration process ...
