UV radiation, arsenic content, high salinity, alkalinity and low dissolved oxygen levels, together with extreme daily temperature fluctuations and oligotrophic conditions, shape an environment that resembles the early Earth and, even more, extraterrestrial conditions. By developing simple biofilms stratified microbial mats or complex microbialites, extreme microbial ecosystems, colonize and thrived in different environments like salt flats, wetlands, lakes volcano vents, geysers and deserts. This book presents our current understanding of these amazing ecosystems, providing a basis for their protection and sustainable utilization. The main audience for this book included researchers and graduate students as well as professionals working in the government, mining industry and similar activities.. | | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | | 关键词 | Extremophiles; Microbial Ecology; High Altitude Ecology; Extremolytes; Andean Microbiology; Desert microb | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-36192-1 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-36194-5 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-36192-1 | | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020 |
