Branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (bGDGTs) are unique ether-linked bacterial
membrane lipids, which occur in diverse environments. Acidobacteria are considered to …

Bacterial communities often develop with distinct metabolisms in hot springs using various
chemical substrates. The carbon and hydrogen isotopic compositions of characteristic lipid …

This report is part of a serial study applying stable isotope labelling to rice microcosms to
track the utilization of recently photosynthesized carbon by active microbiota in the …

Branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (brGDGTs) are increasingly used to
reconstruct past terrestrial temperature and soil pH. Here we compare all available modern …

Isoprenoid glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (iGDGTs), major membrane lipids in some
Archaea, have been widely used to examine past archaeal activity and infer ancient …

Soil microbial biomass is a key source of soil organic carbon (SOC), and the increasing
proportion of microbially derived SOC is thought to drive the enrichment of 13 C during SOC …

Organic molecular proxies provide a record of the hydrogen isotopic composition of ambient
precipitation and paleoenvironmental temperature. In terrestrial settings, two classes of …

The widely distributed paleoclimate archives in Tajikistan, such as loess-paleosol
sequences and the fluvial and lacustrine sedimentary rocks, are excellent materials for …

Fatty acids derived from phospholipids and lipopolysaccharides were investigated from 33
taxonomically different organisms (bacteria, fungi and plant cells) known a priori to inhabit …

A series of surface sediments from 82 lakes of variable water depth and size was analyzed
for glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs) in order to investigate the potential of the …
