Methanogenesis in Big Soda Lake, Nevada: an Alkaline, Moderately Hypersaline Desert Lake [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1982 Incubated sediment slurries from Big Soda Lake, Nevada, produced significant levels of CH 4 , and production was inhibited by 2-bromoethanesulfonic acid and by autoclaving. Methane production was stimulated by methanol, trimethylamine, and, to a lesser extent, methionine. Surprisingly, hydrogen, acetate, and formate

Studying Africa's hydroclimate history over the last 2000 years [PDF]
, 2016 Water-resource availability is one of the most important environmental factors on which Africa’s agricultural societies are reliant. However, our knowledge of the natural background variability of rainfall and drought over Africa is currently still ...

A metagenomics roadmap to the uncultured genome diversity in hypersaline soda lake sediments
Microbiome, 2018 Background Hypersaline soda lakes are characterized by extreme high soluble carbonate alkalinity. Despite the high pH and salt content, highly diverse microbial communities are known to be present in soda lake brines but the microbiome of soda lake ...

Release of CO2 and CH4 from lakes and drainage ditches in temperate wetlands [PDF]
, 2010 Shallow fresh water bodies in peat areas are important contributors to greenhouse gas fluxes to the atmosphere. In this study we determined the magnitude of CH4 and CO2 fluxes from 12 water bodies in Dutch wetlands during the summer season and studied ...

Controls on Cyclic Formation of Quaternary Early Diagenetic Dolomite [PDF]
, 2018 The origin of sedimentary dolomite and the factors that control its formation within the geological record remain speculative. In most models, dolomite formation is linked to evaporative conditions, high water temperature, increasing Mg/Ca ratio ...
