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

Subsurface microbiology: the life below our feet [PDF]
Just as in the classic novel of Jules Verne A Journey to the Centre of the Earth , mankind currently experiences an increasing urge to venture into the subsurface. Mostly not in the true sense, but intellectually, in sampling and exploitation campaigns.

Subsurface microbiology â from exploration to working tools [PDF]
This specialised issue of FEMS Microbiology Ecology contains selected papers from the International Symposium on Subsurface Microbiology (ISSM02) held in Copenhagen, Denmark, 8–13 September 2002. It was the fifth in a series of symposia, the first of which was held in Orlando, Florida, USA in 1990.

Subsurface microbiological heterogeneity: current knowledge, descriptive approaches and applications [PDF]
Improved understanding of the spatial and temporal distribution of microbiological properties and processes is critical due to the relative difficulty and high cost of obtaining large numbers of subsurface samples. Quantification of spatial patterns in subsurface environments is important because it is well known that geologic, hydrologic and ...

Evidence of global-scale aeolian dispersal and endemism in isolated geothermal microbial communities of Antarctica [PDF]
New evidence in aerobiology challenges the assumption that geographical isolation is an effective barrier to microbial transport. However, given the uncertainty with which aerobiological organisms are recruited into existing communities, the ultimate ...

Subsurface Microbial Hydrogen Cycling: Natural Occurrence and Implications for Industry
Hydrogen is a key energy source for subsurface microbial processes, particularly in subsurface environments with limited alternative electron donors, and environments that are not well connected to the surface.

The role of biofilms in subsurface transport processes [PDF]
Landfill and radioactive waste disposal risk assessments focus on contaminant transport and are principally concerned with understanding the movement of gas, water and solutes through engineered barriers and natural groundwater systems.
