Deep subsurface microbiology: a guide to the research topic papers [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2013
Deep subsurface microbiology is a rising field in geomicrobiology, environmental microbiology and microbialecology that focuses on the molecular detection and quantification, cultivation, biogeographic examination, and distribution of bacteria, archaea, and eukarya that permeate the subsurface biosphere.

Subsurface microbiology and the pressing societal need to support future exploration [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Ecology
Abstract Subsurface microbiology is at a crossroads, evolving from asking ‘who’s home’ to seeking clarity on microbes' functionality and the key processes that constrain subsurface life. Importantly, the processes subsurface microorganisms mediate are central to societal needs to mitigate climate change and address waste storage, as ...

The deep subsurface biosphere in igneous ocean crust: frontier habitats for microbiological exploration [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2012
We discuss ridge flank environments in the ocean crust as habitats for subseafloor microbial life. Oceanic ridge flanks, areas far from the magmatic and tectonic influence of seafloor spreading, comprise one of the largest and least explored microbial ...

Metabolic potential of newly isolated bacterial species from the deep subsurface of the Iberian Pyrite Belt [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Río Tinto (Huelva, Spain) is an extreme environment whose origin is a natural underground bioreactor in which the high concentration of metallic sulfides of the Iberian Pyrite Belt are dissolved by microbial activity.

Probing the habitability of potential sulfuric acid rich subsurface lakes in Europa's ice shell via Saci/STIV integrated models [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Experimentally modeling the habitability of extreme ocean world conditions, such as those on Jupiter's moon: Europa, would benefit from integrated microbe-virus model studies to provide both a microbial model and a virus capable of nutrient cycling. This

Isolation and Characterization of Electrochemically Active Subsurface Delftia and Azonexus Species

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Continental subsurface environments can present significant energetic challenges to the resident microorganisms. While these environments are geologically diverse, potentially allowing energy harvesting by microorganisms that catalyze redox reactions ...

Deep Subsurface Microbiology

open access: yes, 2015
Deep subsurface microbiology is a highly active and rapidly advancing research field at the interface of microbiology and the geosciences; it focuses on the detection, identification, quantification, cultivation and activity measurements of bacteria, archaea and eukaryotes that permeate the subsurface biosphere of deep marine sediments and the basaltic

Editorial: celebrating the biogeosphere at the joint meeting of International Societies for Environmental Biogeochemistry and Subsurface Microbiology. [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiol Ecol
We show that chemical pollution alters microbial communities in predictable ways, making their evolutionary relationships a useful tool for tracking environmental contamination.
