A citation code consists of a hyperlinked reference within "ref" begin and end codes.


To repeat the citation for other statements, the reference needs to have a names: "<ref name=aa>”


The repeated citation works like this, with a back slash.[2]

Detailed Environmental Description

Describe the physical and geochemical environment that you are reporting on. How well is has this been studied? Is it current or is most of the work from the 80s? What are the geochemical characteristics? Include some current research, with at least one figure showing data.


Every point of information REQUIRES CITATION using the citation tool shown above.

Overview of Microbial Ecology as it is known

Discuss the alpha and beta diversity of the system. Include some current research, with at least one figure showing data.

Expansion topic 1-3

How you expand upon the basics will depend on your environment. Pick a couple or three of interesting subtopics and describe them in detail. Include some current research, with at least one figure showing data.


Key Microbial Players

In all of your systems there will be at least a couple of key microbial players. Describe these in detail. Where do they fall on the tree of life? Are they cultured? What do they do in general and as it relates to your target environment?
