An Ecological Perspective on Dolomite Formation in Great Salt Lake, Utah
Protodolomite was detected in sediments from Great Salt Lake (GSL), Utah, United States, that have no history of elevated temperature or pressure, conditions that are thought to promote dolomitization of sedimentary carbonates. Protodolomite was abundant

Hydrocarbon Biodegradation in Hypersaline Environments [PDF]
When mineral oil, hexadecane, and glutamate were added to natural samples of varying salinity (3.3 to 28.4%) from salt evaporation ponds and Great Salt Lake, Utah, rates of metabolism of these compounds decreased as salinity increased.

Maintenance of osmotic homeostasis is essential for all organisms, especially for marine animals in the ocean with 3% salinity or higher. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms that how marine animals adapt to high salinity environment compared to ...

Yeast diversity in hypersaline habitats [PDF]
Thus far it has been considered that hypersaline natural brines which are subjected to extreme solar heating, do not contain non-melanized yeast populations. Nevertheless we have isolated yeasts in eight different salterns worldwide, as well as from the Dead Sea, Enriquillo Lake (Dominican Republic) and the Great Salt Lake (Utah).

Safe halophilic bioaugmentation in hypersaline aquaculture systems: ecological mechanisms, resistome risks, and design principles [PDF]
Hypersaline aquaculture systems are increasingly affected by organic enrichment, nutrient accumulation, and microbial instability associated with intensive production.

Eucaryotic Diversity in a Hypersaline Microbial Mat [PDF]
ABSTRACT To determine the eucaryotic diversity of the hypersaline Guerrero Negro microbial mat, we amplified 18S rRNA genes from DNA extracted from this mat and constructed and analyzed clone libraries. The extent of eucaryotic diversity detected was remarkably low, only 15 species among 890 clones analyzed.

Dynamics of hypersaline coastal waters in the Great Barrier Reef [PDF]
The coastal waters of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) are hypersaline (salinity ~ 37) during the dry season as a result of evaporation greatly exceeding rainfall, of shallow waters, and of the presence of numerous bays along the coast preventing rapid ...
