This project studies microbial communities on glaciers to understand their role in carbon cycling. It aims to quantify how the distance from glacier margins affects microbial abundance and activity, thereby contributing to global carbon budget models.
Glaciers cover 10% of the Earth’s land surface and represent an important, yet very little studied, ecosystem.
The biogeochemical cycling of carbon in the glacial ecosystem is largely influenced by microbial communities on glacier surfaces that mainly consist of heterotrophic and photoautotrophic bacteria.
They have the potential to play a significant role in regional carbon budgets by means of primary and secondary production and respiration, and it is very important to evaluate their contribut…
