New Insights Into the Polar Lipid Composition of Extremely Halo(alkali)philic Euryarchaea From Hypersaline Lakes

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
We analyzed the polar membrane lipids of 13 strains of halo(alkali)philic euryarchaea from hypersaline lakes. Nine belong to the class Halobacteria, representing two functional groups: aerobic polysaccharide utilizers and sulfur-respiring anaerobes.

Microbial lipid signatures and substrate potential of organic matter in permafrost deposits - implications for future greenhouse gas production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A terrestrial permafrost core from Buor Khaya in northern Siberia comprising deposits of Late Pleistocene to Early Holocene age has been investigated to characterize living and past microbial communities with respect to modern and paleoclimate ...

Seasonal Changes in Marine Archaeal Tetraether Lipid Export Depth Linked to Net Primary Productivity

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Marine ammonia oxidizing archaea (AOA) produce isoprenoid glycerol dibiphytanyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs) which form the basis of seawater temperature proxy TEX86. Although most studies use TEX86 for sea surface temperature (SST) reconstructions, maximum GDGT production occurs at and below the nitracline. Moreover, sedimentary GDGT‐2/GDGT‐3

Nitrogen isotope evidence for expanded ocean suboxia in the early Cenozoic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The million-year variability of the marine nitrogen cycle is poorly understood. Before 57 million years (Ma) ago, the ^(15)N/^(14)N ratio (δ^(15)N) of foraminifera shell-bound organic matter from three sediment cores was high, indicating expanded water ...

Carbon isotopic composition of branched tetraether membrane lipids in soils suggest a rapid turnover and a heterotrophic life style of their source organism(s) [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2010
Branched Glycerol Dialkyl Glycerol Tetraethers (GDGTs) are membrane spanning lipids synthesised by as yet unknown bacteria that thrive in soils and peat.

Evaluating the Reliability of Grain‐Size Sorting for Organic Biomarker Analysis

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Organic and inorganic geochemical proxies are fundamental for interpreting past climate variability. For inorganic analysis, marine sediments are often size fractionated to isolate foraminifera, while organic analysis employs subsamples of bulk sediment.

Drastic changes in the distribution of branched tetraether lipids in suspended matter and sediments from the Yenisei River and Kara Sea (Siberia): Implications for the use of brGDGT-based proxies in coastal marine sediment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The distribution of branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (brGDGTs) in soils has been shown to correlate with pH and mean annual air temperature.

Crenarchaeol

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2002
The basic structure and stereochemistry of the characteristic glycerol dibiphytanyl glycerol tetraether (GDGT) membrane lipid of cosmopolitan pelagic crenarchaeota has been identified by high field two-dimensional (2D)-NMR techniques.

Mid-late Holocene temperature and precipitation variations in the Guanting Basin, upper reaches of the Yellow River [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The reconstruction of prehistoric temperature and precipitation variations in the upper reaches of the Yellow River is essential for understanding the cultural evolution of the region, but related information is sparse due to the limitations of the ...
