Sentences with phrase «of cyanobacterial»

In the case of the cyanobacterial mat - covered polygonal ponds on Bylot Island, the negative CO2 flux most likely resulted from high photosynthetic rates in the mats, and the modern dates for CH4 suggest that abundant labile compounds coming from a modern autochthonous pool could be the main C supply for microbial activity, including methanogenesis.

The net effects of cyanobacterial blooming are ALL in the direction of cooling, particularly of the lower atmosphere viz:

The effects of the cyanobacterial blooms include a higher cost for cities and local governments to treat their drinking water, as well as risk to swimmers in high concentration areas, and a nuisance to boaters when blooms form.

Long - term microfluidic tracking of coccoid cyanobacterial cells reveals robust control of division timing.

Steven Wilhelm, Kenneth and Blaire Mossman Professor of Microbiology, along with UT graduate students Joshua Stough and Lauren Krausfeldt, worked with a team of 25 researchers to examine the physiological traits of Microcystis, the cyanobacterial organism responsible for scum - like algal blooms in Lake Erie.

Cyanobacterial clock proteins aren't exactly the same as the clock proteins of animals or human clocks, but proteins serve as the cogs, gears and springs of all circadian clockworks and the overall function of the proteins is similar.

«With a warming climate, rising carbon dioxide levels, dams on more rivers than not, and overloading of nutrients into our waterways, the magnitude and duration of toxic cyanobacterial blooms is only going to get worse.»

Enough of such cyanobacterial work over enough time and eventually you get the Bahamas, built out of calcium carbonate.

Indeed, Chisholm and her colleagues showed that other, nonphotosynthetic bacteria can grow using the cyanobacterial vesicles as their only source of carbon.

Site - directed mutagenesis and kinetic analysis of RNA splicing were used to identify a base triple in the conserved core of both a cyanobacterial (Anabaena) and a eukaryotic (Tetrahymena) group I intron.

We have been able to express β - cyanobacterial carboxysome shell proteins transiently in chloroplasts of tobacco leaves.

Chloroplasts have their own genome, which is considerably reduced compared to that of free - living cyanobacteria, but the parts that are still present show clear similarities with the cyanobacterial genome.

Clusters of ALS have been reported near cyanobacterial bloom outbreaks in France, Japan, New Hampshire, and Wisconsin [23 — 27].

Dr. Anton Post is a microbiologist who specializes in the molecular ecology of marine microorganisms with a focus on abundant cyanobacterial species.

Some cyanobacterial blooms can look like foam, scum, or mats on the surface of fresh water lakes and ponds.

But as you may know, I am talking about the rising leading edges of AOT plots which relate to early stage cloud formation (i.e. nucleation — presumably via DMS, isoprenes etc emitting by cyanobacterial blooming).

Back on track, the marked trends towards widespread, increased oceanic cyanobacterial growth in the last decade have of course not gone unobserved.

(2) there is verifiable concurrent increasing cyanobacterial productivity in these waters AND the emergence of two strands (consortia) of bacteria which bloom twice a year (unlike the SH below 30 S) thereby increasing the proportion of the year in which the sea surface is affected.

Much of the infrastructure and other investment could be (fairly) easily switched to «carbon - neutral» products: biowaste (e.g. azolla) for coal, bio-methane for natural gas, and cyanobacterial oil for petroleum.

As carefully noted, it is the indirect biophysical effects (listed above) of the trends towards widespread, increased oceanic cyanobacterial growth which affect oceanic climate / weather.

If entering the «climate drivers equation» is now the increasing activity of tropical (or extra-tropical) ocean cyanobacterial productivity (driven by the CO2 fertilization effect including the effect of the anthropogenic nitrogen discharges to coastal oceans), then what can we say about the strength of future El Ninos and La Ninas and the predictability of the PDO?

You know, for a little while there I even thought that Bob T himself (who is undoubtedly an interesting fellow) might even be sharp enough to appreciate that the coupling of increased atmospheric CO2 and increased seawater N nutrient levels to produce enhanced cyanobacterial productivity in near surface layers of the oceans would also produce the weather - moderating effects listed above (particularly in the areas where tropical storms are «brewed»).

But consider this: if the cost of PV / electrolytic or cyanobacterial fuel (using environmental CO2) becomes competitive with current natural gas, an investment in such a plant is completely hedged, in terms of being «green».

But pollution also covers hundreds of chemicals which are fine or even beneficial at low levels but which if released in large quantities or in problematic circumstances cause «harm» — like phosphorus (grows your veges but also leads to toxic cyanobacterial blooms which kill cattle), nitrogen (grows crops kills many native species of plants and promotes weed growth costing farmers), copper (used as an oxygen carrier by gastropods but in high concentrations kills the life in sediments which feed fish), hormones like oestrogen (essential for regulating bodies but in high concentrations confuse reproductive cycles especially with marine life) or maybe molasses from a sugar mill (good for rum but when dumped into east coast estuaries used to cause oxygen sag in estuaries leading to massive fish kills).

These research results demonstrate the potential of using cyanobacterial catalyzed «whitings» as a method to sequester CO2 from the atmosphere.

This will allow immediate leverage of the low cost of natural gas, along with easy conversion to light oils (free of «corrosive components») generated by cyanobacterial processes (such as Joule Unlimited's), or methane from conversion of solar / electrolytic hydrogen and atmospheric CO2 when either / both of those processes become cost - competitive.
