| development of a small-scale bioreactor method to monitor the molecular diversity and environmental impacts of bacterial biofilm communities from an acid mine drainage impacted creek. | shamokin creek is a tributary of the susquehanna river in central pennsylvania that is heavily impacted by the acid mine drainage (amd) caused by the oxidation of pyrite from the region's extensive anthracite coal mining industry. recent studies have begun to characterize the microbial communities present in this and other amd-impacted waters, but varying environmental conditions have complicated attempts to determine the ecological impacts of individual bacterial species within these communitie ... | 2011 | 21821067 |
