Article Synopsis
  • A diverse range of microbes live around hydrothermal vents on the seafloor, thriving in harsh conditions like high pressure, extreme temperatures, and total darkness.
  • Researchers studied three aerobic strains of Planctomycetota isolated from deep-sea iron-rich deposits in the Arctic and Pacific Oceans.
  • The genomic analysis showed that these deep-sea strains do not significantly differ from their surface-dwelling relatives, indicating a non-extreme genomic makeup despite their extreme habitat.

Harmful levels of environmental contaminants, such as arsenic (As), persist readily in the environment, threatening safe drinking water supplies in many parts of the world. In this paper, we present a straightforward and cost-effective filtration technology for the removal of arsenate from potable water. Biocomposite filters comprised of nanocrystalline iron oxides or oxyhydroxides mineralized within lignocellulose scaffolds constitute a promising low cost, low-tech avenue for the removal of these contaminants.

Abnormal levels of co-occurring arsenic (As), fluoride (F) and iodine (I) in groundwater at the Hetao Basin are geochemically unique. The abnormal distribution of As, F and I is obviously related to the sedimentary environment. It is necessary to study the enrichment mechanisms for the co-occurrence of As, F and I in groundwater under the influence of the sedimentary environment in Hetao Basin.

The chemical composition and redox conditions of the Precambrian ocean are key factors for reconstructing the temporal evolution of atmospheric oxygen through time. In particular, the isotopic composition of iron are useful proxies for reconstructing paleo-ocean environments. Yet, respective processes and related signatures are poorly constrained, hindering the reconstruction of iron redox mechanisms in the Archean ocean.
