Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
Life on Earth is possible due to the vital elements and energy transformations referred as biogeochemical cycle. Microorganisms play an essential role in moderating the Earth's biogeochemical cycles; nevertheless, despite our fastincreasing ability to investigate highly complex microbial communities and ecosystem processes, they remain unknown. Microbes are crucial in nutrient cycling and energy transfers between ecosystems and the tropics, but research on their intricate functions is still restricted due to technological inabilities. A better understanding of microbial communities based on ecological principles may improve our ability to predict ecosystem process rates using environmental variables and microbial physiology. We explored the ecological role of microorganisms participating in biogeochemical cycles, hoping to delineate the role of microbes and microbiomes in biogeochemical cycles. Insights into these aspects can help us mitigate the effects of climate change and other future uncertainties by regulating the microbial-dependent biogeochemical cycle.
