Cryoconite bacterial community plays an important role in alpine glacier mass balance and carbon cycling, especial in the Tibetan Plateau where facing strong glacier shrink.
This study seeks to examine the microbial assemblages found throughout a High Arctic Glacier (Sverdrup Glacier, Devon Island, NU) from the supraglacial environment to the glacier bed. In tandem, this
Fifty-seven snow-bacteria strains were isolated from the snow of the Zadang and Mengdagangri Glaciers located in the central and southern part of the Tibetan Plateau, respectively. 16S rRNA gene seque
