    • Abstract:
      Presents research which linked specific environmental microbial processes with the organisms involved, based on stable-carbon-isotope labeling of individual lipid biomarkers. Underestimation of microbial diversity in various natural environments; Evidence for sulphate reduction coupled to acetate oxidation in estuarine and brackish sediments; Evidence for methane oxidation in freshwater sediment; Implications of research.
