ALADDIN-2: a launchpad for the GENIE Earth-System Model
ALADDIN-2 is an ENGAGE-funded project to develop a launchpad for the GENIE Earth-system model, which will allow interactive configuration and execution of GENIE and provide real-time visualisation of key model output. It will lower the barrier to uptake of GENIE for researchers by increasing ease of use and also provide access to the model for students and teachers, policy-makers and the public. It will run with the GENIE source-code as a fully- functional and configurable research tool, including the ability to 'export' pre-configured standalone instances as teaching / demo tools to define and launch ensemble experiments on remote computing resources.

Geomicrobiological Aspects of the Oxidation of Reduced Sulfur Compounds by Photosynthesizing Bacteria
The activity of photosynthesizing sulfur bacteria in a continuous culture was studied. The bacteria were isolated from the natural environment with the use of the Winogradski column. Isolated bacteria were cultured in synthetic medium and in the effluent from the column containig HS-. Sulphides, the main product of reduction of sulfates in phosphogypsum, were used by green sulfur bacteria in the photosynthetic column. Almost 70% reduction of the concentration of sulfides was observed. After the experiment, diffractometric methods where employed to analyze the sediment from the column.
