Download or read book Life at Extremes written by Elanor Bell and published by CABI. This book was released on 2012 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From arid deserts to icy poles, outer space to the depths of the sea, this exciting new work studies the remarkable life forms that have made these inhospitable environments their home. Covering not only micro-organisms, but also higher plants and animals such as worms, fish and polar plants, this book details the ecological, biological and biogeochemical challenges these organisms face and unifying themes between environments. Equally useful for the expert, student and casual scientific reader, this book also explores the impact of climate change, rapid seasonal changes and pollution on these extraordinary creatures.
Book Synopsis Life at the Extremes by : Susan Rose Simms
Download or read book Life at the Extremes written by Susan Rose Simms and published by High Noon Books. This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it take to live in the hottest places on Earth? What about the coldest, the highest, or the deepest? Some animals live in places where no human could survive. Their bodies can function in these extreme settings. They know how to find food, water, air, or whatever they need. What are some of these creatures, and what do they do to stay alive. Life at the Extremes is part of the Super Science Facts series that engages readers in grades 5 to 12 with fun science facts and colorful images on every page to support comprehension. The series covers Physical Science, Life Science and Social Sciences in individual sets. The minimal-text format (1,700 to 2,000 words per book) introduces content vocabulary defined in context and repeated in a glossary.
Book Synopsis Adaption of Microbial Life to Environmental Extremes by : Helga Stan-Lotter
Download or read book Adaption of Microbial Life to Environmental Extremes written by Helga Stan-Lotter and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This entirely updated second edition provides an overview on the biology, ecology and biodiversity of extremophiles. Unusual and less explored ecosystems inhabited by extremophiles such as marine hypersaline deeps, extreme cold, desert sands, and man-made clean rooms for spacecraft assembly are presented. An additional focus is put on the role of these highly specialized microorganism in applied research fields, ranging from biotechnology and nanotechnology to astrobiology. Examples such as novel psychrophilic enzymes, compounds from halophiles, and detection strategies for potential extraterrestrial life forms are discussed in detail. The book addresses researchers and advanced students in the fields of microbiology, microbial ecology and biotechnology.
Book Synopsis Life in Extreme Environments by : Guido di Prisco
Download or read book Life in Extreme Environments written by Guido di Prisco and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-10-15 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From deep ocean trenches and the geographical poles to outer space, organisms can be found living in remarkably extreme conditions. This book provides a captivating account of these systems and their extraordinary inhabitants, 'extremophiles'. A diverse, multidisciplinary group of experts discuss responses and adaptations to change; biodiversity, bioenergetic processes, and biotic and abiotic interactions; polar environments; and life and habitability, including searching for biosignatures in the extraterrestrial environment. The editors emphasize that understanding these systems is important for increasing our knowledge and utilizing their potential, but this remains an understudied area. Given the threat to these environments and their biota caused by climate change and human impact, this timely book also addresses the urgency to document these systems. It will help graduate students and researchers in conservation, marine biology, evolutionary biology, environmental change and astrobiology better understand how life exists in these environments and their susceptibility or resilience to change.
Book Synopsis Life at Interfaces and Under Extreme Conditions by : Gerd Liebezeit
Download or read book Life at Interfaces and Under Extreme Conditions written by Gerd Liebezeit and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interfaces between media, whether air-water or sediment-water interfaces or organisms themselves, pose considerable problems to marine organisms attempting to live at these boundaries. In the present volume, a number of authors address various aspects of these two topics. Locations under scrutiny range from intertidal areas to the deep sea, while both macro-and meiofaunal organisms are investigated. Distribution patterns and effects of variable temperatures, pressures, and salinities are analysed. Aspects of fouling induction and prevention are also addressed. This book is intended as a progress report from the 33rd European Marine Biology Symposium held in Wilhelmshaven, Germany, in September 1998.

Book Synopsis Enigmatic Microorganisms and Life in Extreme Environments by : Joseph Seckbach
Download or read book Enigmatic Microorganisms and Life in Extreme Environments written by Joseph Seckbach and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 623 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern methods and approaches, such as the analysis of molecular sequences to infer evolutionary relationships among organisms, have provided vast new sets of data to further our understanding ofliving organisms, but there remain enigmas in the biological world that will keep scientists working and thinking for decades. Microorganisms by virtue of their small size and almost unbounded diversity provide ample examples of intriguing mysteries that are being challenged with all of the techniques the modern scientific arsenal can provide. One whole arena of this battle to resolve puzzling mysteries about various microorganisms is the almost unbelievable ability of many micro-organisms to live in extreme environments. Whether the challenge is extreme heat, cold, pressure, hyper salinity, alkalinity or acidity, some micro-organisms live now where no life might seem possible. This fascinating state of affairs is the context for this present volume edited by Joseph Seckbach. This Volume is a compilation of many of the especially interesting questions and biological challenges that arise in the consideration of microorganisms in general and the extremophiles in particular.
