Article Synopsis
- Environmental surveys post-2010 Deepwater Horizon spill revealed diverse hydrocarbon-degrading microorganisms, showing faster biodegradation rates than anticipated at cooler temperatures.
- The study examines microbial community composition across six global marine basins, finding similarities in shallow-water communities and distinct clustering in deep-water communities based on their specific environments.
- Understanding these microbial communities is crucial for predicting how petroleum will be biodegraded, aiding in effective decision-making during petroleum spill responses.
In early 2011 FEI Company launched the "Falcon", its first commercial direct electron detector product intended for application in 3-D electron microscopy in the life sciences. In this paper we discuss the principle of direct electron detection and its implementation in Falcon cameras. We describe the signal formation in the sensor and its impact on the detection quantum efficiency (DQE) of the sensor.
