An actualistic perspective into Archean worlds - (cyano-)bacterially induced sedimentary structures in the siliciclastic Nhlazatse Section, 2.9 Ga Pongola Supergroup, South Africa [0.03%]
基于实际主义的视角探究太古宙世界——南非邦戈拉超群2.9Ga硅质碎屑岩奈克拉兹特段中由（ Cyano-）细菌诱导产生的沉积构造

Extensive microbial mats colonize sandy tidal flats that form along the coasts of today's Earth. The microbenthos (mainly cyanobacteria) respond to the prevailing physical sediment dynamics by biostabilization, baffling and trapping, as wel...

A Wieland et al.
The fine-scale depth distribution of major carbon pools and their stable carbon isotopic signatures (delta(13)C) were determined in a cyanobacterial mat (Salin-de-Giraud, Camargue, France) to study early diagenetic alterations and the carbo...
Fossilized microorganisms associated with zeolite-carbonate interfaces in sub-seafloor hydrothermal environments [0.03%]
海底热液环境中与沸石-碳酸盐界面相关的化石微生物群

M Ivarsson et al.
In this paper we describe carbon-rich filamentous structures observed in association with the zeolite mineral phillipsite from sub-seafloor samples drilled and collected during the Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 197 at the Emperor Seamoun...
Characterization of extracellular minerals produced during dissimilatory Fe(III) and U(VI) reduction at 100 degrees C by Pyrobaculum islandicum [0.03%]

In order to gain insight into the significance of biotic metal reduction and mineral formation in hyperthermophilic environments, metal mineralization as a result of the dissimilatory reduction of poorly crystalline Fe(III) oxide, and U(VI)...
Early colonization of thermal niches in a silica-depositing hot spring in central Tibet [0.03%]

Thermophilic microbial mats dominated by the anoxygenic phototroph Roseiflexus castenholzii commonly develop around sinter-depositing geysers in the Daggyai Tso geothermal field of central Tibet. In this study we used morphological and mole...
Putative cryptoendolithic life in Devonian pillow basalt, Rheinisches Schiefergebirge, Germany [0.03%]
德国莱恩斯凯弗勒吉伯尔山志留纪枕状玄武岩中假设的 Cryptoendolithic 生命形式
J Peckmann,W Bach,K Behrens et al.
J Peckmann et al.
Middle Devonian (Givetian) pillow basalt and inter-pillow breccia from the Rheinisches Schiefergebirge in Germany were found to contain putative biogenic filaments that indicate that life once proliferated within these volcanic rocks. Miner...
Earliest fossil record of bacterial-cyanobacterial mat consortia: the early Silurian Passage Creek biota (440 Ma, Virginia, USA) [0.03%]
早志留世(4.4亿年前)的细菌-蓝菌 consortium 最古老的化石记录：美国弗吉尼亚州 Passage Creek 生物群

A M F Tomescu
Cyanobacteria in terrestrial and aquatic habitats are frequently associated with heterotrophic bacteria, and such associations are most often metabolically interactive. Functionally, the members of such bacterial-cyanobacterial consortia be...
Seawater Mg/Ca controls polymorph mineralogy of microbial CaCO3: a potential proxy for calcite-aragonite seas in Precambrian time [0.03%]
海水Mg/Ca控制微生物碳酸盐矿物学的多形性：前寒武纪钙质海洋与方解石质海洋潜在代理指标
J B Ries,M A Anderson,R T Hill
J B Ries
A previously published hydrothermal brine-river water mixing model driven by ocean crust production suggests that the molar Mg/Ca ratio of seawater (mMg/Ca(sw)) has varied significantly (approximately 1.0-5.2) over Precambrian time, resulti...
Growth of synthetic stromatolites and wrinkle structures in the absence of microbes - implications for the early fossil record [0.03%]
无微生物条件下合成层状石灰岩和皱纹结构的生长——对早期化石记录的意义
N McLoughlin,L A Wilson,M D Brasier
N McLoughlin
Stromatolites and wrinkle structures are often taken to be an important indicator for early life. While both may be shaped by microbial mat growth, this can be open to doubt, so that the contribution of abiotic processes in their constructi...
