The rapid increase of the potent greenhouse gas methane in the atmosphere creates great
urgency to develop and deploy technologies for methane mitigation. One approach to …

Multiple heavy metal contamination is an increasingly common global problem. Heavy
metals have the potential to disrupt microbially mediated biogeochemical cycling. However …

The groundwater in many aquifers contains elevated concentrations of iron (Fe). Although
much of this Fe is from its release from water-bearing sediments under natural …

Over the last century, leaps in technology for imaging, sampling, detection, high-throughput
sequencing, and-omics analyses have revolutionized microbial ecology to enable rapid …

In many aquifers around the world, there exists the issue of abnormal concentrations of Fe
and Mn in groundwater. Although it has been recognized that the main source of this issue is …

Niche environmental conditions influence both the structure and function of microbial
communities and the cellular function of individual strains. The terrestrial subsurface is a …

Environmental contamination constrains microbial communities impacting diversity and total
metabolic activity. The former S-3 Ponds contamination site at Oak Ridge Reservation …

Dissolved black carbon (DBC) plays a crucial role in the migration and bioavailability of iron
in water. However, the properties of DBC releasing under diverse pyrolysis conditions and …

Bacillus cereus strain CPT56D‐587‐MTF (CPTF) was isolated from the highly contaminated
Oak Ridge Reservation (ORR) subsurface. This site is contaminated with high levels of nitric …

The sources and sinks of nitrous oxide, as control emissions to the atmosphere, are
generally poorly constrained for most environmental systems. Initial depth-resolved analysis …
