Geomicrobiology

Geomicrobiology is the scientific field at the intersection of geology and microbiology. It apprehensions the part of microbes on geological and geochemical processes and effects of minerals and metals to microbial growth, activity and survival. Such interactions occur in the geosphere (rocks, minerals, soils, and sediments), the atmosphere and the hydrosphere. Geomicrobiology studies microorganisms that are driving the Earth's biogeochemical cycles, mediating mineral precipitation and dissolution, and sorbing and concentrating metals. The requests include for example bioremediation, mining, climate change mitigation and public drinking water supplies.
