Nitrification activity and putative ammonia-oxidizing archaea in acidic red soils
PurposeAcidic red soils account for 21% of land area in China and contain low ammonia concentration due to ionization to ammonium. The unusual high...

The Energetic Balance of Microbial Exploitation of Pelagic Redox Gradients
In marine environments and especially in marginal seas, pelagic redox gradients with underlying sulfidic water layers are a known phenomenon. General...
