TL;DR: The ability of bacteria to accumulate metal ions and incorporate them into mineral phases will be described, which has widespread importance for the shaping of the authors' planet and the recycling of mineral elements.

TL;DR: Opaline silica deposits found on Mars are interpreted to have formed under hydrothermal conditions and therefore to be strong indicators of a former aqueous environment, important for understanding the past habitability of Mars.
Abstract: Mineral deposits on the martian surface can elucidate ancient environmental conditions on the planet. Opaline silica deposits (as much as 91 weight percent SiO2) have been found in association with volcanic materials by the Mars rover Spirit. The deposits are present both as light-toned soils and as bedrock. We interpret these materials to have formed under hydrothermal conditions and therefore to be strong indicators of a former aqueous environment. This discovery is important for understanding the past habitability of Mars because hydrothermal environments on Earth support thriving microbial ecosystems.

TL;DR: In this article, the structure of soil can determine both the effectiveness and the impact of farming practices, and the extent to which crop breeding and the management of weeds, insects, disease, soil fertility, and water are manifested in increased crop yields.
Abstract: The structure of soil can determine both the effectiveness and the impact of farming practices. Soil structure influences the extent to which crop breeding and the management of weeds, insects, disease, soil fertility, and water are manifested in increased crop yields. Soil structure also influences the loss of agricultural chemicals through erosion and leaching and can, therefore, have a significant bearing on the environmental impact of some agricultural practices.

TL;DR: A review of the different structural principles involved in the assembly of the casein micellar particles present in mammalian milks is given in this article, where the evidence for particular models is given, and it is concluded that a model based on calcium phosphate nanoclusters is the most appropriate in view of electron microscopic and scattering experiments.
Abstract: A review is made of the different structural principles involved in the assembly of the casein micellar particles present in mammalian milks. The properties of the constituent casein proteins are described, and how these can lead to different structural models. The evidence for particular models is given, and it is concluded that a model based on calcium phosphate nanoclusters is the most appropriate in view of electron microscopic and scattering experiments. A modification of the nanocluster model is presented, which allows many of the known structural properties of the micelles to be incorporated.

TL;DR: It is hypothesised that definition of muscle fascicle size and shape by the bounding perimysium is related to the need for sub-sections of the whole muscle to slip past each other in the normal contractile function of the tissue.
