Aquatic Microbial Ecology and Biogeochemistry

The papers herein represent wide-ranging topics, from the processes that structure microbial diversity to nitrogen and photosynthesis metabolism, to dynamics of changing ecosystems and processes and dynamics in individual ecosystems. In all, these papers take us from the Arctic to Africa, from the Arabian Sea to Australia, from small lakes in Maine and Yellowstone hot vents to the Sargasso Sea, and in the process provide analyses that make us think about the structure and function of all of these systems in the aquatic realm. Our hope is that this book is useful not only for the depth and breadth of knowledge that is conveyed in the chapters, but that this book also serves to be useful for future dual career couples faced with the challenges only dual career couples face. Great teams do make great science.
