Microbial Communities Associated With Passive Acidic Abandoned Coal Mine Remediation

Microbial Communities Associated With Passive Acidic Abandoned Coal Mine Remediation

Acid mine drainage (AMD) is an environmental issue that can be characterized by either acidic or circumneutral pH and high dissolved metal content in contaminated waters. It is estimated to affect roughly 3000 miles of waterways within the state of Pennsylvania, with half being acidic and half being...
