Gegenstand der Arbeit ist die Entwicklung eines symmetriefreien magnetohydrodynamischen Modells der solaren Korona, welches sich vor allem durch seine explizite Energiegleichung von bestehenden Ansätzen abhebt. Die relevanten ...

Due to its extreme salinity and high Mg concentration the Dead Sea is characterized by a very low density of cells most of which are Archaea. We discovered several underwater fresh to brackish water springs in the Dead ...

In the presented case study, ascomycete fungi and green algae on a marble monument were identified by comparisons of the 18S rRNA gene sequences, which were obtained from DNA either from environmental samples or from ...

Iron flocculants play a major role in the remediation of water bodies, removing particulate pollutants such as microplastics through floc formation. Such flocs are prone to microbial iron reduction while lying on top of ...

The crater lake of the small volcanic island Satonda, Indonesia, is unique for its red-algal microbial reefs thriving in marinederived water of increased alkalinity. The lake is a potential analogue for ancient oceans ...

Our paper (Arp et al. 2003) revises previous studies of Kaz´mierczak and Kempe (1990, 1992), Kempe and Kaz´mierczak (1990a, 1990b, 1993), and Kempe et al. (1996, 1997) on Lake Satonda reefs with regard to biofilm calcification ...

The Satonda crater lake is up to now the only known "marine" lake with an increased alkalinity compared to seawater. Therefore, the lake contains a decreased amount of Ca2 +. Its pH values about 8.5-8.6. The lake was ...
