Was uns “Metaproteomics” über den Geschmack von Tiefsee-Mikroorganismen verrät

In den sonnendurchfluteten Oberflächenschichten des Meeres wird organisches Material produziert, das als Basis des Nahrungsnetzes dient und auch größtenteils im Oberflächengewässer in Kohlendioxid und anorganische Nährstoffe zerlegt wird. Nur rund 10 bis 20 Prozent des organischen Materials sinkt in die Tiefen des Ozeans und dient den Lebensgemeinschaften der Tiefsee als Nahrungsquelle. (more…)

Some sharks are ‘gregarious’ and have strong social connections, whilst others are more solitary and prefer to remain inconspicuous, according to a new study which is the first to show that the notorious predators have personality traits.

Personalities are known to exist in many animals, but are usually defined by individual characteristics such as how exploratory, bold or aggressive an individual is. (more…)

With a $3.9 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy, a UA-led international collaboration studies how microbes release greenhouse gases as they gain access to nutrients in the soil thawing under the influence of warmer global temperatures

The U.S. Department of Energy has awarded $3.9 million to an international collaboration led by University of Arizona ecologists Scott Saleska and Virginia Rich to study how microbes release greenhouse gases as they access nutrients in thawing permafrost soils under the influence of a warmer climate.
