Microbial life in deep subseafloor coal beds.
Deep beneath the seafloor, microbial communities thrive on the leftovers of organic material that in the past settled down from the surface layers of the ocean to the sediment. As the organic matter was buried deeper and deeper over geological time it became increasingly recalcitrant to microbial degradation. Microbial cells that still persist in these ancient deposits appear to survive at the ...
متن کاملCommunity structure and biogeochemical impacts of microbial life on floating pumice.
Volcanic eruptions are a widespread force of geological and ecological disturbance and present recurrent opportunities for the study of biological responses to novel habitat formation. However, scientific study of such events is difficult given their short duration and often distant location. Here we report results from opportunistic sampling of unique volcano-generated habitats formed during t...
متن کاملDoctoral Dissertation Biology and Potential Biogeochemical Impacts of Novel Predatory Flavobacteria Biology and Potential Biogeochemical Impacts of Novel Predatory Flavobacteria
Predatory bacteria are ubiquitous in aquatic environments and may be important players in the ecology and biogeochemistry of microbial communities. Three novel strains belonging to two genera of marine flavobacteria, Olleya and Tenacibaculum, were cultured from coastal sediments and found to be predatory on other bacteria on surfaces. Two published species of the genus Tenacibaculum were also o...
متن کاملSubseafloor sedimentary life in the South Pacific Gyre.
The low-productivity South Pacific Gyre (SPG) is Earth's largest oceanic province. Its sediment accumulates extraordinarily slowly (0.1-1 m per million years). This sediment contains a living community that is characterized by very low biomass and very low metabolic activity. At every depth in cored SPG sediment, mean cell abundances are 3 to 4 orders of magnitude lower than at the same depths ...
