      Cryoconite is a mixture of mineral and organic material covering glacial ice, playing important roles in biogeochemical cycles and lowering the albedo of a glacier surface. Understanding the differences in structure of ...
    • Icescape-scale metabolomics reveals cyanobacterial and topographic control of the core metabolism of the cryoconite ecosystem of an Arctic ice cap 

      Gokul, Jarishma K.; Mur, Luis A. J.; Hodson, Andrew; Irvine-Fynn, Tristram D. L.; Debbonaire, Aliyah R.; Takeuchi, Nozomu; Edwards, Arwyn (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Glaciers host ecosystems comprised of biodiverse and active microbiota. Among glacial ecosystems, less is known about the ecology of ice caps since most studies focus on valley glaciers or ice sheet margins. Previously we ...
