    Sub type: Webinar

    This talk will examine the role of microorganisms in deep geological repositories (DGRs) for nuclear waste. We will explore who these microbes are, how they survive in extreme environments, and how their activity affects the safety of the repository over thousands of years. Microbial Diversity: the key groups of bacteria, fungi, and archaea found in […]
