  3. Hydrothermal vent microbial communities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrothermal_vent...

    There are generally three kinds of vents that occur and are all characterized by its temperature and chemical composition. Diffuse vents release clear water typically up to 30 °C. White smoker vents emit a milky-coloured water between 200-330 °C, and black smoker vents generally release water hotter than the other vents between 300-400 °C.

    Testing of the Old Danube Lake indicated that there were significant concentrations of nanoparticles from cosmetics in the water. Conservative estimates calculate that there were approximately 27.2 micrograms/L of TiO 2 , if TiO 2 was distributed throughout the entire 3.5*10^6 M^3 volume of the lake.

  5. Marine biogeochemical cycles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_biogeochemical_cycles

    Since liquid water flows, ocean waters cycle and flow in currents around the world. Since water easily changes phase, it can be carried into the atmosphere as water vapour or frozen as an iceberg. It can then precipitate or melt to become liquid water again. All marine life is immersed in water, the matrix and womb of life itself. [7]

    Each cycle works together to regulate the microorganisms in certain processes. [33] For example, the nitrogen gas which makes up 78% of the Earth's atmosphere is unavailable to most organisms, until it is converted to a biologically available form by the microbial process of nitrogen fixation . [ 34 ]

    The water report is only the second such analysis done by the WMO and includes data from large river basins, including river discharge, groundwater, evaporation, soil moisture and reservoir inflow.

  9. Bacteriological water analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacteriological_water_analysis

    Bacteriological water analysis is a method of analysing water to estimate the numbers of bacteria present and, if needed, to find out what sort of bacteria they are. It represents one aspect of water quality. It is a microbiological analytical procedure which uses samples of water and from these samples determines the concentration of bacteria ...
