High northern latitudes are disproportionately affected by global climate change with the effects of warming already evident in the decline of permafrost 1,2. Rising temperatures can initiate ...
Sulfur is a fundamental element of life and all organisms need it to synthesize cellular materials. Autotrophs, such as plants and algae, acquire sulfur by converting sulfate into sulfide, which can ...
Who says biologists only like to sit in their labs doing research? The theory proves wrong with CSUN’s Larry Baresi, a Northridge resident who enjoys cooking, making wines, riding his bike, hiking, ...
Scientists have solved a long-standing mystery about methanogens, unique microorganisms that transform electricity and carbon dioxide into methane. The results could pave the way for microbial ...
The process by which plants and algae acquire sulfur—converting sulfate into sulfide—requires a lot of energy and produces harmful intermediates and byproducts that need to be immediately transformed.
