Pathogenic Yet Environmentally Friendly? Black Fungal Candidates for Bioremediation of Pollutants: Geomicrobiology Journal [PDF]
A collection of 163 strains of black yeast-like fungi from the CBS Fungal Biodiversity Center (Utrecht, The Netherlands), has been screened for the ability to grow on hexadecane, toluene and polychlorinated biphenyl 126 (PCB126) as the sole carbon and ...

AMOC Weakening Controls δ18O but Not Rainfall in North China During Deglacial Abrupt Events
Abstract East Asian Summer Monsoon (EASM) varied at orbital and millennial timescales during the Last Deglaciation (∼20–11 ka). The uniform δ18O response in East China is often linked to EASM circulation that drives a precipitation dipole in North and South China on orbital scale.

The Geomicrobiology of Nuclear Waste Disposal
The geomicrobiology of high-level nuclear waste disposal is a new field in the area of nuclear waste management. Until recently the likelihood of microbial contamination in a deep repository had not been considered, but possible biogeochemical effects of

Sampling across large-scale geological gradients to study geosphere–biosphere interactions
Despite being one of the largest microbial ecosystems on Earth, many basic open questions remain about how life exists and thrives in the deep subsurface biosphere.

Abstract The pattern and cause of upper‐water temperature (UWT) variations on millennial timescales in the Southern Ocean (SO) and the mechanism of their interaction with high‐latitude Northern Hemisphere climate remain unclear. Here, we reconstructed millennial‐scale subsurface temperature (subST) records from the Weddell Sea during the Last Glacial ...

Elucidating the physiological significance of iodate reduction in Shewanella species
Abstract The reduction of iodate by Shewanella species plays a crucial role in iodine biogeochemical cycling. However, the physiological significance of this reduction process remains poorly understood, because Shewanella species are capable of reducing only low concentrations of iodate.

Metagenomics deciphers diagenetic processes of ferruginous mineralization in the deep biosphere
Ferruginous conditions in the Precambrian oceans gave rise to ancient iron formations that contain the oldest recognized traces of life in the form of mineral biosignatures and isotope imprints.
