The Kiel Reese lab integrates molecular microbiology, biogeochemistry, and geology to examine aquatic and sediment geomicrobiology. We are guided by fundamental questions such as: Who is alive? What are they doing? What are the global implications of microbial life within Earth systems? Our lab combines state-of-the-art culture-independent molecular techniques (including metatranscriptomics and metagenomics) with high throughput culturing using Fluorescent Activated Cell Sorting and advanced geochemical analysis to describe the total microbial environment. Our work spans marine and freshwater, shallow sediments within estuaries and coastal hypoxic zones, deeply buried continental mines and caves, and marine subsurface sediments.
We are part of the Stokes School of Marine and Environmental Sciences at the University of South Alabama and the Dauphin Island Sea Lab.
