It’s often assumed that all soil organic carbon ultimately derives from recent vegetation, but researchers argue that carbon inherited from parent rocks can be important and deserves more focus.
Microfluidics experiments and simulations show that magnetotactic bacteria are adapted to the geomagnetic field strength for optimal navigation in sediment environments.
Scientists from the University of Oregon in the United States have discovered a new type of electrically conductive bacteria ...
We are particularly interested in resolving the architecture and depositional history of sedimentary strata deposited in shallow-marine environments, and we employ a wide range of qualitative (e.g., ...
