Open AccessCoupling among Microbial Communities, Biogeochemistry and Mineralogy across Biogeochemical Facies
Physical properties of sediments are commonly used to define subsurface lithofacies and these same physical properties influence subsurface microbial communities. This suggests an (unexploited) opportunity to ...

Environmental Controls on the Activity of Aquifer Microbial Communities in the 300 Area of the Hanford Site
Aquifer microbes in the 300 Area of the Hanford Site in southeastern Washington State, USA, are located in an oligotrophic environment and are periodically exposed to U(VI) concentrations that can range up to ...

Modeling Microbial Dynamics in Heterogeneous Environments: Growth on Soil Carbon Sources
We have developed a new kinetic model to study how microbial dynamics are affected by the heterogeneity in the physical structure of the environment and by different strategies for hydrolysis of polymeric carb...

Microbial Community Analysis of Soils Contaminated with Lead, Chromium and Petroleum Hydrocarbons
The impact on the microbial community of long-term environmental exposure to metal and organic contamination was investigated. Twenty-four soil samples were collected along a transect dug in soils contaminated...

Bacterial Activity, Community Structure, and Centimeter-Scale Spatial Heterogeneity in Contaminated Soil
In an anthropogenically disturbed soil (88% sand, 8% silt, 4% clay), 150-mg samples were studied to examine the fine-scale relationship of bacterial activity and community structure to heavy metal contaminants...

Aciduric Proteobacteria isolated from pH 2.9 soil
Acidic (pH 2.9) soil was used as an inoculum to culture heterotrophic bacteria at pH values of 3–4. Four isolates were obtained; on the basis of 16S rDNA sequence, they were shown to be members of the β- and...

Excretion of photosynthetically fixed organic carbon by metalimnetic phytoplankton
The effects of light intensity, oxygen concentration, and pH on the rates of photosynthesis and net excretion by metalimnetic phytoplankton populations of Little Crooked Lake, Indiana, were studied. Photosynth...

Effect of light intensity on macromolecular synthesis in cyanobacteria
The light-dependent incorporation of NaH14CO3 into low molecular weight compounds, polysaccharide, or protein was determined in cultures of the cyanobacteriumMerismopedia tenuissima incubated at a series of light...
