Congratulations to Camille Rolland for her paper "Impact of Water Saturation on Microbial Hydrogen Consumption in Porous Media".

Have you ever wondered how much water is needed for microbial activity and growth? Check out a new paper by Camille Rolland, Elisabetta Occelli, and Myriam Abdelouhabi in collaboration with Olivier Leupin from Nagra - Nationale Genossenschaft für die Lagerung radioaktiver Abfälle that looks at the activity of microbes in clay under varying degrees of water saturation.
