Carbon fixation by basalt-hosted microbial communities
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2015)Oceanic crust is a massive potential habitat for microbial life on Earth, yet our understanding of this ecosystem is limited due to difficulty in access. In particular, measurements of rates of microbial activity are sparse. ... -

Low Temperature Geomicrobiology Follows Host Rock Composition Along a Geochemical Gradient in Lau Basin
(Frontiers Media SA, 2013)The East Lau Spreading Center (ELSC) and Valu Fa Ridge (VFR) comprise a ridge segment in the southwest Pacific Ocean where rapid transitions in the underlying mantle chemistry manifest themselves as gradients in seafloor ...
