The importance of sediment sulfate reduction to the sulfate budget of an impoundment receiving acid mine drainage
TL;DR: In this paper, a sulfate influx-efflux budget was constructed for Lake Anna, an impoundment in central Virginia that receives acid mine drainage, and 48% of the sulfate entering the lake was removed from the water column within 2 km of the arm of the lake receiving the pollution.
Effects of transverse mixing on transport of bacteria through heterogeneous porous media
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of transverse mixing of bacteria in a system constructed to have a permeability discontinuity in the direction parallel to the flow were measured using a transverse dispersion coefficient estimated from experiments using a conservative tracer.
Relative effectiveness of kinetic analysis vs single point readings for classifying environmental samples based on community-level physiological profiles (CLPP)
TL;DR: The results indicate that the use of kinetic parameters for pattern analysis in CLPP may provide some additional information, but only if the influence of inoculum density is carefully considered.
Effect of solution ionic strength and iron coatings on mineral grains on the sorption of bacterial cells to quartz sand.
TL;DR: Experimental results of adsorption in mixtures of quartz and Fe(III)-coated sand were successfully predicted by a simple additive model for sorption by the two substrate phases, consistent with the interpretation that an increasingly compressed electrical double layer results in stronger adsorbed between the like-charged mineral surface and the bacterial cells.
