چکیده
“The organic substances we have found occur in sufficiently large quantities to support bacterial growth. This turns the droplets into small dynamic universes, each of which supports certain forms of life,” says Tina Santl Temkiv, who conducted the new study as a PhD student together with her supervisor, senior researcher Ulrich Bay Gosewinkel, at Aarhus University’s Department of Environmental Science – Environmental Chemistry and Microbiology.

متن کاملHailstones: A Window into the Microbial and Chemical Inventory of a Storm Cloud
Storm clouds frequently form in the summer period in temperate climate zones. Studies on these inaccessible and short-lived atmospheric habitats have been scarce. We report here on the first comprehensive biogeochemical investigation of a storm cloud using hailstones as a natural stochastic sampling tool. A detailed molecular analysis of the dissolved organic matter in individual hailstones via...
متن کاملPALM and STORM: unlocking live-cell super-resolution.
Live-cell fluorescence light microscopy has emerged as an important tool in the study of cellular biology. The development of fluorescent markers in parallel with super-resolution imaging systems has pushed light microscopy into the realm of molecular visualization at the nanometer scale. Resolutions previously only attained with electron microscopes are now within the grasp of light microscope...
متن کاملRelationship between white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) loads and characterizations of water quality in Litopenaeus vannamei culture ponds during the tropical storm
An in-situ experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of tropical storm on the white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) loads in Litopenaeus vannamei rearing ponds. White spot syndrome virus loads, heterotrophic bacteria, Vibrio and water quality (including temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO), salinity, pH, NH4-N, and NO2-N) were continually monitored through one tropical storm. The WSSV loads d...
متن کاملLightning on Jupiter observed in the Hα line by the Cassini imaging science subsystem
Night side images of Jupiter taken by the Cassini Imaging Science Subsystem (ISS) camera with the Hα filter reveal four lightning clusters; two of them are repeated observations of the same storm. All of these flashes are associated with storm clouds seen a few hours earlier on the day side of Jupiter. Some of the clouds associated with lightning do not extend to the upper troposphere. The repe...
