H ungarian researchers have discovered unique bacterial communities in thermal waters that may help unravel the development of stromatolites, one of Earth's oldest rock formations. These findings ...

As Earth cools, a crust forms over it. Mounded bacterial formations called stromatolites appear in shallow waters of the early oceans, and small land blocks collide with one another to produce the ...

Over the eons, these biofilms have piled up and calcified into forms that look like rocks called stromatolites ... sequenced the genome of one of these bacterial colonies, a species within ...

The Atlantic is the second largest ocean on the planet. It is the resting place of the Titanic, home to the mysterious Bermuda Triangle and is the youngest of the Earth's great oceans. It reaches ...

Unique bacterial communities in Hungarian thermal waters have been found to form biofilms similar to ancient stromatolites, offering insights into the development of these early carbonate structures.
