From: Microbial stratification in low pH oxic and suboxic macroscopic growths along an acid mine drainage
The main differences at the level of microbial diversity between the Los Rueldos macroscopic growths and similar macroscopic structures previously reported from other AMD sites. (a) Mynydd Parys mine streamer (Hallberg et al., 2006). (b) Tinto River macroscopic floating filaments (López-Archilla et al., 2004). (c) Los Rueldos mine streamer/mats (this study). (d) Iron Mountain mine acidic biofilm (Tyson et al., 2004).
