Spatial and Vertical Stratification of Groundwater Microbial Communities Reveals Proteobacterial Dominance and Redox-Driven Ecological Transitions

Groundwater microbial communities exhibit pronounced vertical and spatial structuring driven by physicochemical gradients. Here, we investigated microbial assemblages across surface and subsurface layers of three groundwater wells distributed along a 1.26 km transect in the Wadi Awja aquifer system...
