A rich and largely untapped reservoir of lipids in soil environments was used to examine microorganisms’ physiological responses to drying-rewetting cycles.
A team from the Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory published research, demonstrating that the soil microbes were directly involved in the stabilization of soil organic carbon and mineral weathering.
Microbes that were previously frozen in soils are becoming more active. This study demonstrates the diverse RNA viral communities found in thawed permafrost.
Secondary organic aerosol formation from monoterpenes is more strongly influenced by oxidant and monoterpene structure than by nitric oxides and hydroperoxy radical concentrations.
Repeated aircraft measurements over central Oklahoma allow researchers to better understand the spatial variability of aerosol properties that affect cloud evolution.
The Earth system model aerosol-cloud diagnostics package version 1 uses aircraft, ship, and surface measurements to evaluate simulated aerosols in an Earth system model.
Dominant and functionally important soil microbes show strong, predictable, and distinctly different associations with continental-scale gradients in climate, vegetation, and soil moisture.
Investigating cloud condensation nuclei activities in various airmasses enabled linking activity variations with organic oxidation levels and volatility
