Stable microbial community composition on the Greenland Ice Sheet

Stable microbial community composition on the Greenland Ice Sheet

The first molecular-based studies of microbes in snow and on glaciers have only recently been performed on the vast Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS). Aeolian microbial seeding is hypothesized to impact on glacier surface community compositions. Localized melting of glacier debris (cryoconite) into the sur...
