Subsurface Observatory – ENIGMA
The ENIGMA project seeks to discover, characterize the reciprocal interactions between the microbial communities and the geochemical and geophysical parameters of the shallow subsurface within the contamination plume of groundwater and sediment microbiomes in the shallow subsurface at the contaminated Oak Ridge Field Research Site (FRC). Our ambition is to do so at sufficient […]

The ENIGMA project seeks to discover, characterize the reciprocal interactions between the microbial communities and the geochemical and geophysical parameters of the shallow subsurface within the contamination plume of groundwater and sediment microbiomes in the shallow subsurface at the contaminated Oak Ridge Reservation (ORR). Our ambition is to do so at sufficient resolution to causally predict the active biotic and abiotic mechanisms mediating key processes such as denitrification
