Microbial biogeography of 1,000 geothermal springs: spatial, temporal, and allopatric dynamics of extremophiles in the Taupō Volcanic Zone, Aotearoa-New Zealand
(The University of Waikato, 2023)Geothermal springs are model ecosystems to investigate microbial biogeography as they represent discrete, relatively homogeneous habitats, are distributed across multiple geographical scales, and span broad geochemical ... -
The effects of ocean acidification on microbial nutrient cycling and productivity in coastal marine sediments
(The University of Waikato, 2022)Ocean Acidification (OA), commonly referred to as the “other CO₂ problem,” illustrates the current rise in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO₂) levels, precipitated in large by human-related activity (e.g., fossil fuel combustion ... -
An investigation of microbial communities across two extreme geothermal gradients on Mt. Erebus, Victoria Land, Antarctica
(The University of Waikato, 2021)The geothermal fumaroles present on Mt. Erebus, Antarctica, are home to numerous unique and possibly endemic bacteria. The isolated nature of Mt. Erebus provides an opportunity to closely examine how geothermal physico-chemistry ... -
Sea ice dynamics drive benthic microbial communities in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica
(The University of Waikato, 2020)Globally, Earth’s warming climate is evidently driving sea ice variability in high latitude regions. In the Arctic, older and thicker multi-year sea ice is declining and transitioning into younger and more ephemeral ... -
Microbial abundance and diversity surrounding mummified seals in Miers Valley, Antarctica
(The University of Waikato, 2004)The presence of a number of mummified seal carcasses have been reported in the Dry Valleys of Antarctica. The location of seal carcasses were observed up to 240km in-land, and approximately 1500m above sea level. The ...
