Biotic and Isotopic Vestiges of Oligotrophy on Continental Shelves During Oceanic Anoxic Event 2 [PDF]
AbstractThe widespread expansion of the oxygen minimum zone onto shelves has been commonly regarded as a primary cause of benthos extinction in epicratonic sea ecosystems during the Cenomanian–Turonian boundary event (CTBE). However, neither lithology, geochemical proxies, nor micropaleontological data support this hypothesis.

Comparative metagenomic analysis reveals mechanisms for stress response in hypoliths from extreme hyperarid deserts [PDF]
Understanding microbial adaptation to environmental stressors is crucial for interpreting broader ecological patterns. In the most extreme hot and cold deserts, cryptic niche communities are thought to play key roles in ecosystem processes and represent ...

Identification of a transcriptional regulator for oligotrophy-responsive promoter in Rhodococcus erythropolis N9T-4 [PDF]
ABSTRACT Two genes, aldA, and mnoA, encoding an NAD-dependent aliphatic dehydrogenase and N,N′-dimethyl-4-nitrosoaniline-dependent methanol dehydrogenase, respectively, are strongly expressed when Rhodococcus erythropolis N9T-4 is grown under oligotrophic conditions.

Intermediate water flows in the western South Pacific: as revealed by individual Argo floats trajectories and a model re-analysis [PDF]
Thanks to the autonomous Argo floats of the OUTPACE cruise (Oligotrophy to UlTra-oligotrophy PACific Experiment) and of the THOT (TaHitian Ocean Time series) project, some features of intermediate-flow dynamics, at around 1000 m depth, within the ...
