As NASA has long since discovered, the basin may offer the best analog of early Earth. In essence, CCB is a time machine that can take us far back and forth in time. In the respective chapters, the contributing authors explain the extraordinary microbial diversity of Cuatro Ciénegas Basin from various perspectives. In order to do so, they explain their journey as well as the different tools used to unravel the basin's mysteries, such as: Why are there so many species in a place without food? How has life there survived the enormity of tectonic shifts through the ages, maintaining its ancient marine heritage? 000856311 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed October 5, 2018). 000856311 588__ $$aVendor-supplied metadata. 000856311 650_0 $$aNatural history$$zMexico$$zCuatrociénegas. 000856311 651_0 $$aCuatrociénegas (Mexico)$$xEcology. 000856311 651_0 $$aCuatrociénegas (Mexico)$$xMicrobiology. 000856311 7001_ $$aSouza, Valeria,$$eeditor. 000856311 7001_ $$aOlmedo-Álvarez, Gabriela,$$eeditor. 000856311 7001_ $$aEguiarte, Luis E.$$q(Luis Enrique),$$eeditor. 000856311 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9783319934228 000856311 830_0 $$aCuatro ciénegas basin. 000856311 852__ $$bebk 000856311 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-93423-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000856311 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:856311$$pGLOBAL_SET 000856311 980__ $$aEBOOK 000856311 980__ $$aBIB 000856311 982__ $$aEbook 000856311 983__ $$aOnline 000856311 994__ $$a92$$bISE
