Bonanza
Creek Microbial Observatory: Alaskan soil--a cold microbial observatory
Cabo
Rojo Salterns Microbial Observatory: a Puerto Rican estuary microbial
observatory
Itaska
State Park Microbial Observatory: the microalgae of Minnesota lakes
Kamchatka
Microbial Observatory: located in the The Uzon Caldera (Kamchatka Peninsula)
of Russia, this MO will characterize new taxa of bacteria and archaea, with
geochemical characterization, especially of the gas emissions, of selected
springs
Microbial Diversity in
Lakes of the Hawaiian Archipelago
Microbial
Observatory at the H.J. Andrews LTER: dedicated
to the study of bacteria and fungi central to biogeochemical processes in
coniferous forest ecosystems in the Central Cascade Mountains of Oregon
Microbial
Observatory for Virioplankton Ecology: a goal of this MO is to investigate
the role of viruses in the annual biological cycle of a temperate estuary,
the Chesapeake Bay
Mono
Lake Microbial Observatory: the primary goal of the proposed research
is to examine the distributions of Mono Lake microbes and to understand
the response of microbial assemblages to the gradients of physical and chemical
variables in relation to temporal changes driven by hydrodynamics
Monterey
Bay Coastal Ocean Microbial Observatory: analysis of genetic variability,
gene content, and genomic potential in uncultivated marine picoplankton
North
Temperate Lakes Microbial Observatory: a University of Wisconsin program
to advance the understanding of lake bacterioplankton
Red
Layer Microbial Observatory: Western Oregon University and Yellowstone
National Park--promoting undergraduate research and education
Salt
Plains Microbial Observatory: a collaborative project between researchers
at Oklahoma State University, Wichita State University, and the University
of Tulsa
San
Salvador Microbial Observatory: the overall research objective of this
study will be to assess the influence water availability has on structural
diversification, community composition, production, and carbon sequestration
in microbial mats
Sapelo
Island Microbial Observatory: the Sapelo Island MO is investigating
the diversity of prokaryotes, their physiological and genetic characteristics,
and their biogeochemical activities in a salt marsh/estuarine ecosystem
in the southeastern U.S.
Duke
Forest Mycological Observatory: an MO in the Duke Forest--exploring
fungal diversity in response to environmental change
Oceanic
Microbial Observatory: the goal of this microbial observatory project
is to understand the cell biology and biogeochemical activities of the major
bacterioplankton groups by applying new high throughput technologies for
cell culturing, and studying the metabolism of these organisms in nature
and their interactions with organic matter in the oceans
Plum
Island Estuary Microbial Observatory: located at the Plum Island Estuary
LTER site in coastal Massachusetts, this MO identifies prokaryotes in salt
marsh sediments and plankton and determines their role in controlling major
ecosystem processes
Tropical
Caterpillars Microbial Observatory: based in the Area de Conservacion
Guanacaste (ACG) in northwestern Costa Rica, this MO focuses on the detection,
characterization, and inventory of caterpillar gut-associated microbiota |
