    Search for patterns by combining cosmic-ray energy and arrival directions at the Pierre Auger Observatory

    Energy-dependent patterns in the arrival directions of cosmic rays are searched for using data of the Pierre Auger Observatory. We investigate local regions around the highest-energy cosmic rays with ...

    Disease Containment Strategies based on Mobility and Information Dissemination

    Human mobility and social structure are at the basis of disease spreading. Disease containment strategies are usually devised from coarse-grained assumptions about human mobility. Cellular networks data, howev...

    Microbiological characterization of a semi-enclosed sub-Antarctic environment: the Straits of Magellan

    Among sub-Antarctic ecosystems, the microbiology of the Straits of Magellan has been poorly documented due to the scarcity of observations. In this context, the spatial distribution of microbiological paramete...

    Occurrence and characterization of psychrotolerant hydrocarbon-oxidizing bacteria from surface seawater along the Victoria Land coast (Antarctica)

    A total of 253 hydrocarbon-oxidizing bacterial isolates were achieved from eight Antarctic surface seawater samples enriched on diesel oil at 4°C. Isolates were screened by amplified ribosomal DNA restriction ...

    Psychrophiles - Cold-Adapted Hydrocarbon-Degrading Microorganisms

    Throughout the year a high percentage of the biosphere, about 85%, is permanently exposed to temperatures below 5°C. Despite the inhospitable nature of low-temperature environments they are successfully coloni...

    Distribution of Representative Oligotrophic Bacteria in a Pelagic Marine Environment (Ligurian Sea) by in situ Hybridization with rRNA-targeted, Fluorescently Labelled Oligonucleotides

    The distribution of specific autochthonous oligotrophic bacteria in a surface layer (30 m depth) of a pelagic seawater station (DYFAMED, 28 miles off-shore, in the northwestern Mediterranean Sea) was studied b...
