Opportunistic behavior in birds can enhance the ability of a species to expand their distribution. Currently, there is no documentation of any bird diving and feeding in hot springs with temperatures greater than 30°C. A ...

Hot alkali chloride fluids ascend from deep geothermal reservoirs and discharge at the surface as hot springs. As the silica-rich fluid discharges and cools to below 100°C, the silica carried in solution precipitates and ...

Several cyanobacterial species are dominant primary producers in hot spring microbial mats. To date, hot spring cyanobacterial taxonomy, as well as the evolution of their genomic adaptations to high temperatures, are poorly ...

In summary, this investigation identified an N. fowleri ameba in water sources at a resort in Costa Rica that had been visited by a child from the United States who died of PAM as a results of N. fowleri infection. These ...

Jurassic siliceous hot-spring (sinter) deposits from Argentine Patagonia were evaluated to determine the distribution and preservation quality of their entombed microbial fabrics. Detailed study showed that the Claudia ...

The Deseado Massif, Santa Cruz Province, Argentinean Patagonia, hosts numerous Middle to Late Jurassic age geothermal and epithermal features represented by siliceous and calcareous chemical precipitates from hot springs ...
