Diversity and seasonal dynamics of airborne archaea
Fröhlich-Nowoisky, J.; Ruzene Nespoli, C.; Pickersgil, D. A.; Galand, P. E.; Müller-Germann, I.; Nunes, T.; Gomes Cardoso, J.; Almeida, S. M.; Pio, C.Archaea are widespread and abundant in many terrestrial and aquatic environments, and are thus outside extreme environments, accounting for up to 10% of the prokaryotes. Compared to bacteria and other microorganisms, however, very little is known about the abundance, diversity, and dispersal of archaea in the atmosphere. By means of DNA analysis and Sanger sequencing targeting the 16S rRNA (435 sequences) and a...
General overview: European Integrated project on Aerosol Cloud Climate and Air ...
Kulmala, M.; Asmi, A.; Lappalainen, H. K.; Baltensperger, U.; Brenguier, J. L.; Facchini, M. C.; Hansson, H. C.; Hov, Ø.; O'Dowd, C. D.; Pöschl, U.In this paper we describe and summarize the main achievements of the European Aerosol Cloud Climate and Air Quality Interactions project (EUCAARI). EUCAARI started on 1 January 2007 and ended on 31 December 2010 leaving a rich legacy including: (a) a comprehensive database with a year of observations of the physical, chemical and optical properties of aerosol particles over Europe, (b) comprehensive aerosol mea...
