Goethite Reduction by a Neutrophilic Member of the Alphaproteobacterial Genus Telmatospirillum

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
In tropical iron ore regions, biologically mediated reduction of crystalline iron oxides drives ongoing iron cycling that contributes to the stability of surface duricrusts.

Ferromanganese nodules and micro-hardgrounds associated with the Cadiz Contourite Channel (NE Atlantic): Palaeoenvironmental records of fluid venting and bottom currents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Ferromanganese nodule fields and hardgrounds have recently been discovered in the Cadiz Contourite Channel in the Gulf of Cadiz (850–1000 m). This channel is part of a large contourite depositional system generated by the Mediterranean Outflow Water ...

Metagenomic Analysis of Thawing Permafrost Highlights Links Between Carbon and Nitrogen Cycling Processes in Abrupt Thaw Simulation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Abrupt permafrost thaw events are projected to contribute up to 40% of permafrost carbon (C) release to the atmosphere. They involve sudden hydrological shifts within the soil column; however, the exact microbial functional pathway shifts induced by these events remain cryptic. To investigate how C and nutrient cycling processes differ in thaw

Microbial Populations of Stony Meteorites: Substrate Controls on First Colonizers

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Finding fresh, sterilized rocks provides ecologists with a clean slate to test ideas about first colonization and the evolution of soils de novo. Lava has been used previously in first colonizer studies due to the sterilizing heat required for its ...

Microbial metal resistance and metabolism across dynamic landscapes: high-throughput environmental microbiology. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Multidimensional gradients of inorganic compounds influence microbial activity in diverse pristine and anthropogenically perturbed environments. Here, we suggest that high-throughput cultivation and genetics can be systematically applied to generate ...

High latitude terrestrial carbon isotope and mercury perturbations across the Late Triassic Carnian Pluvial Episode in Northwestern China

open access: yesScientific Reports
The Carnian Pluvial Episode (CPE) was a Late Triassic interval of global environmental changes and biological turnovers linked to C-cycle perturbation and global warming.

Late Triassic Hydroclimatic Changes in Central China Linked to Evolving Mountain Topography

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract During the Late Triassic, tropical Pangea drifted northward into subtropical latitudes and became progressively drier. In contrast, South China, despite experiencing a similar latitudinal shift, transitioned from an arid to humid climate. Based on the sedimentary record of the Zigui Basin, this study constrains the arid to humid climatic shift

Growth of candidate phyla radiation bacteria in groundwater incubations reveals widespread adaptations to oxic conditions

open access: yesMicrobiome
Background The candidate phyla radiation (CPR) comprises a widespread but poorly understood group of bacteria with limited cultured representatives, largely due to their metabolic dependencies on microbial hosts.

Geomicrobiology: Low life [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2009
The boundaries of biology reach farther below Earth's surface than scientists had thought possible. Amanda Leigh Mascarelli delves into how microbes survive deep underground.

Arguments for a "U.S. Kamioka": SNOLab and its Implications for North American Underground Science Planning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We argue for a cost-effective, long-term North American underground science strategy based on partnership with Canada and initial construction of a modest U.S. Stage I laboratory designed to complement SNOLab.
