MICROBIAL LIFE OF THE DEEP BIOSPHERE GEBUNDEN

Over the last two decades  exploration of the deep subsurface biosphere has developed into a
major research area. New findings constantly challenge our concepts of global biogeochemical
cycles and the ultimate limits to life. In order to explain our observations from deep
subsurface ecosystems it is necessary to develop truly interdisciplinary approaches  ranging
from microbiology and geochemistry to physics and modeling. This book aims to bring together a
wide variety of topics  covering the broad range of issues that are associated with deep
biosphere exploration. Not only does the book present case studies of selected projects  but
also treats questions arising from our current knowledge. Despite nearly two decades of
research  there are still many boundaries to exploration caused by technical limitations and
one section of the book is devoted to these technical challenges and the latest developments in
this field. This volume will be of high interest to biologists  chemists and earth scientists
all working on the deep biosphere.
