In this study the relationship between salinity and temperature
changes on microbial growth, enzyme induction and substrate uptake
were investigated. The obligately psychrophilic bacterium, V.
marinus MP-1 was grown for 48 hours at 15 C in a glucose-ammonium
medium (GAM) containing 0.4 M NaCl. Log-phase cells were harvested
and shifted...
An estuary, unlike the open ocean, is a dynamic system that is continuously undergoing changes in its physical and chemical properties. Marked fluctuations in the levels and kinds of nutrients, temperature, and salinity are normally found in estuarine environments. These changes occur principally as a result of freshwater intrusions, tidal...

The Generation Challenge programme (GCP) is a global crop research consortium directed toward crop improvement through the
application of comparative biology and genetic resources characterization to plant breeding. A key consortium research activity
is the development of a GCP crop bioinformatics platform to support GCP research. This platform includes the...
The last glacial period exhibited abrupt Dansgaard–Oeschger climatic oscillations, evidence of which is preserved in a variety of Northern Hemisphere palaeoclimate archives¹. Ice cores show that Antarctica cooled during the warm phases of the Greenland Dansgaard–Oeschger cycle and vice versa[superscript 2,3], suggesting an interhemispheric redistribution of heat through a mechanism...
