The interpretation of local redox indicators in marine sediments relies on their preservation. By their nature, such biogeochemical tracers are susceptible to diagenetic alteration …
Bacterial hopanoid lipids are ubiquitous in the geologic record and serve as biomarkers for reconstructing Earth's climatic and biogeochemical evolution. Specifically, the abundance of …

Heterocyte glycolipids (HGs) are biomarkers for N 2-fixing heterocytous cyanobacteria (HCB). The hexose (hereafter C 6) sugar moiety of HGs is produced by free-living HCB …
We examined membrane-spanning archaeal lipids using ultra high pressure liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-HRMS) in a suite of sediment …
Pre-oxidation can be used against cyanobacteria at the water treatment plant intake to improve cell removal efficiency in down flow processes and reduce cyanotoxins …
Ocean deoxygenation is a rising threat to marine ecosystems and food resources under present climate warming conditions. Organic-rich sapropel layers deposited in the …
