Jeff S. Bowman and Jody W. Deming (January 21, 2012) Elevated bacterial abundance in laboratory-grown and naturally occurring frost flowers under late winter conditions. University of Washington School of Oceanography and Astrobiology Program. Arkivita el la originalo je 2013-01-07. Alirita December 30, 2012. “ABSTRACT Sea ice has been identified as an important microbial habitat, with bacteria and other microbes concentrated in the brine inclusions between ice crystals.... The presence of elevated numbers of bacteria in frost flowers may have implications for the previously observed chemical reactions that take place in them, especially if microbial activity can be shown to occur in this unique low temperature, low water”.
