Document Summary
Wednesday march 6 t h lecture 18. Temperature dependen ce of wild -type and chimeric ak catalyti c activities: The core is not as dependent on activity here. The wild type thermophile has low activity at low temperature. For exam: know why this is desirable: astrobiology and the search for life in the universe: Within the next several decades, we will almost certainly know if these is life on terrestrial planets within approximately 15 parsecs of our solar system . Sampling of sediments and the subsurface (microenvironments and very costly) Such as whale falls can dramatically change the microbial environment within mms. Changes over space and time: weather, currents, climate change. The closer you get to coastal areas the more pollution you find: characterization of the relevant physical and biogeochemical conditions (ocean time series) Sargasso sea is oligotrophic and it is not bounded by land (so the currents are unique)
