Acid mine drainage (AMD) is one of the most hazardous byproducts of some types of mining. However, research on how AMD affects the bacterial community structure of downstream …
Abstract Highly acidic (pH 0–1) biofilms, known as 'snottites', form on the walls and ceilings of hydrogen sulfide-rich caves. We investigated the population structure, physiology and …
