geothermal

Examples of geothermal in the following topics:

• Hydrothermal Vent Microbial Ecosystems

  • A hydrothermal vent is a fissure in the earth's surface from which geothermally heated water issues.
  • As mineral resources on land have become depleted, mining companies have turned to deep sea geothermal vents to extract metals and sulfur.
  • Hydrothermal vents are cracks in the earth's crust where geothermally heated water leaks out.

• Hyperthermophiles from Terrestrial Volcanic Habitats

  • A hyperthermophile thrives at relatively high temperatures and can be found in geothermally heated regions of the Earth.
  • Thermophiles are found in various geothermally heated regions of the Earth, such as the hot springs found in Yellowstone National Park .

• Classification of Microorganisms by Growth Temperature

  • Thermophiles are found in various geothermally heated regions of the Earth, such as hot springs like those in Yellowstone National Park. and deep sea hydrothermal vents, as well as decaying plant matter, such as peat bogs and compost.As a prerequisite for their survival, thermophiles contain enzymes that can function at high temperatures.

• Gammaproteobacteria

  • Some Gammaproteobacteria are methane oxidizers, and many of them are in symbiosis with geothermic ocean vent dwelling animals.

• Amoebic Meningoencephalitis

  • The organism specifically prefers temperatures above 32 °C, as might be found in a tropical climate or in water heated by geothermal activity.

• Hyperthermophiles from Submarine Volcanic Habitats

  • Thermophiles are found in various geothermally heated regions of the Earth, such as deep sea hydrothermal vents.
