New paper from our lab and finds water masses as microbial provinces across a full ocean section in the South Pacific. Exciting work by former Allen Lab PhD student @science_doodles. @Scripps_Ocean @JCVenterInst @ScienceMagazine jcvi.org/media-center/n…
Many of you gave me so much encouragement when I posted here earlier about my 10 year long passion project to make a microbial map of the ocean. Pinch me because I can't believe I get to update you that today that research was published in the journal SCIENCE! (@aaas)

If you're interested in reading the "behind the paper" story of how we discovered this microbe, have a look at our blog post here: communities.springernature.com/posts/simultan… Sometimes, new discoveries begin not with a grand project, but with an unexpected observation while chasing another story.…
We isolated a new electroactive microbe from the sediment oxic-anoxic interface and were surprised to see it respiring Fe and O2 simultaneously. Thrilled to share the publication now: nature.com/articles/s4146… Sincere thanks to coauthors @JLustermans, Naja and Leonid. @ISMETsociety
🚨 Fresh from the press! We created and analyzed over 100 in vitro cyanobacterial consortia using well-characterized model cyanobacterial hosts to better understand how cyanobacteria recruit and interact with their microbiomes. Check it out: academic.oup.com/ismej/advance-…
🥳🥳 Our paper using #metagenomics to explore the core species of stable #cyanobacteria #microbiome communities is now out in the @ISMEJournal!!! Excellent work by @AndrejaKust and company, and collaboration with @BanfieldLab. tinyurl.com/3cs2x6r7

The newly discovered microbe provisionally known as Sukunaarchaeum isn’t a virus. But like viruses, it seemingly has one purpose: to make more of itself. Learn more: scim.ag/4eGtttN @NewsfromScience

Watch carbon dioxide move through Earth’s atmosphere. With this high resolution model, scientists can see CO2 rising from sources like power plants, fires, and cities and watch how that carbon dioxide spreads via wind patterns and atmospheric circulation. go.nasa.gov/46kD7OD

Is the ocean changing color? 🌊 A newly published study in the journal Science this week suggests that might be the case. Photosynthetic phytoplankton contain chlorophyll, the same pigment that makes land plants appear green. By analyzing satellite images from the last 20 years,…
