Article Synopsis
- The study examines bacterial communities and their role in the corrosion of intertidal structures across three UK coastal sites.
- Chemical analyses reveal sulfate-reducing microbes (SRBs) are active at Shoreham and Newhaven but absent at Southend-on-Sea, where corrosion mechanisms differ.
- The research developed a rapid identification method for SRBs using advanced genetic analysis, aiding in understanding and diagnosing different types of intertidal corrosion.
