Graminoids Increase Greenhouse Gas Emissions From Thawed Permafrost at the End of the Growing Season. [PDF]
Field study investigating whether and to which degree graminoids further reduce soil redox and lead to more greenhouse gas emissions from thawing permafrost soil on top of hydrology and anoxia effects. Graminoids, thus, contribute to thawed permafrost soils turning to C sources rather than sinks toward the end of the growing season.

The ever increasing demand for oil, coupled with the reduction in reserves, is increasing emphasis on finding new oil deposits and recovering more oil from known reserves since half to two thirds of all of the oil discovered to date is still in the ground and not recoverable by present technology.

Marine Deep Biosphere Microbial Communities Assemble in Near-Surface Sediments in Aarhus Bay
Analyses of microbial diversity in marine sediments have identified a core set of taxa unique to the marine deep biosphere. Previous studies have suggested that these specialized communities are shaped by processes in the surface seabed, in particular ...
