The activity of anammox bacteria (AA) can be estimated based on the production of N2. Known the mechanism of the catabolic reaction, three differential equations are established according to the most important substrates ...

An Aquatic Habitability Index is proposed, based on Quantitative Habitability Theory, and considering a very general model for life. It is a primary habitability index, measuring habitability for phytoplankton in the first ...

Se evalua como pudo evolucionar el proceso de la photosíntesis del fitoplancton después de un evento catastrófico como el impacto del asteroide de Chicxulub, emploeándose el modelo E de fotosíntesis para fitoplancton con ...

We do a preliminary modelling of the photosynthetic rates of phytoplankton at the very beginning of the Paleogene, just after the impact of the Chicxulub asteroid, which decisively contributed to the last known mass ...

The potential of a mass asteroid impact on Earth to disturb the chemosynthetic communities at global scale is discussed. Special emphasis is made on the potential influence on anammox communities and their implications in ...

We perform a quantitative assessment for the potential for photosynthesis in hydrothermal vents in the deep ocean. The photosynthetically active radiation in this case is from geothermal origin: the infrared thermal ...
