Diazotroph‐Driven 210Po Scavenging Reveals a Potential Radiotracer for Marine Nitrogen Fixation
Abstract The role of phytoplankton, particularly diazotrophs, in affecting in situ 210Po scavenging has been little investigated. Here, we first report an enhanced 210Po deficit in a cyclonic eddy core relative to its edge in the subtropical Pacific, coinciding with an elevated integrated nitrogen fixation rate (NFR).

Degradation of Dispersants and Dispersed Oil [PDF]
Chemical oil dispersants are proprietary mixtures of surfactants and solvents which are directly applied to a spill in order to reduce the natural attractive forces of the oil. When oil treated with dispersants is exposed to mixing energy, typically from

Possible role of Geobacter sulfurreducens in anaerobic corrosion of steels [PDF]
Geobacteraceae are the most widespread microorganisms in soils and sediments in which microbial reduction of Fe(III) is an important process, either in the natural degradation of organic compounds or in their bioremediation.

Hydrothermal activity lowers trophic diversity in Antarctic sedimented hydrothermal vents [PDF]
Sedimented hydrothermal vents are those in which hydrothermal fluid vents through sediment and are among the least studied deep-sea ecosystems. We present a combination of microbial and biochemical data to assess trophodynamics between and within ...

Abstract Trace organic compounds (TrOCs) in lotic systems pose risks for ecosystem and human health. TrOCs can enter groundwater along losing river sections, yet little is known about the spatial extent of infiltration zones and the biogeochemical factors controlling the spatial variability of TrOC reactivity and removal, particularly along river‐to ...

Aside from two samples collected nearly 50 years ago, little is known about the microbial composition of wind tidal flats in the hypersaline Laguna Madre, Texas. These mats account for ~42% of the lagoon’s area.

Current study results indicated that Pseudomonas aeruginosa alginate and brown algae alginate exhibited significant differences (p ≤ 0.05) in the morphology and physicochemical characteristics. The mechanical features of brown algae alginate films were significantly (p ≤ 0.05) more superior to Pseudomonas aeruginosa alginate films.
