Metapangenomic investigation provides insight into niche differentiation of methanogenic populations from the subsurface serpentinizing environment, Samail Ophiolite, Oman

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Serpentinization reactions produce highly reduced waters that have hyperalkaline pH and that can have high concentrations of H2 and CH4. Putatively autotrophic methanogenic archaea have been identified in the subsurface waters of the Samail Ophiolite ...

N2O formation by nitrite-induced (chemo)denitrification in coastal marine sediment

Scientific Reports, 2019
Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a potent greenhouse gas that also contributes to stratospheric ozone depletion. Besides microbial denitrification, abiotic nitrite reduction by Fe(II) (chemodenitrification) has the potential to be an important source of N2O. Here,

Sulphur and Carbon Isotopes as Tracers of Past Sub-seafloor Microbial Activity [PDF]

, 2019
Microbial life below the seafloor has changed over geological time, but these changes are often not obvious, as they are not recorded in the sediment.

Iron mineral dissolution releases iron and associated organic carbon during permafrost thaw

Nature Communications, 2020
Iron minerals trap carbon in permafrost, preventing microbial degradation and release to the atmosphere as CO2, but the stability of this carbon as permafrost thaws is unclear.

The impact of space flight on survival and interaction of Cupriavidus metallidurans CH34 with basalt, a volcanic moon analog rock [PDF]

, 2017
Microbe-mineral interactions have become of interest for space exploration as microorganisms could be used to biomine from extra-terrestrial material and extract elements useful as micronutrients in life support systems.
