This Special Issue aims to compile scientific contributions on low temperature microbiology with a focus on current and future global challenges. Original research, review, and perspective papers addressing the following topic areas will be considered: Environmental change: e.g., the taxonomic and functional diversity of microbial communities in polar and alpine regions, biodiversity loss, biotic and abiotic interactions, biological processes and biogeochemical cycles, greenhouse gas production, ice-albedo, etc.; Long-term microbial preservation in nature: e.g., microbial ancient DNA (aDNA), viability and metabolic activity of microorganisms in ancient cryo-environments, old pathogens in melting glaciers and permafrost, etc.; Sustainable bioproducts and bioprocesses: e.g., omics-based approaches to the discovery of functional molecules, expression systems and fermentation strategies, cryo-enzymes, antimicrobials, biosurfactants and other cold-active biomolecules of biotechnological potential, etc.
Special Issue information - Deadline for manuscript submissions: 15 December 2022.

The Special Issue, Microbes in Extreme Marine Environments, is devoted to fundamental and applied aspects concerning the study of the microbial diversity of marine extreme environments and aims to contribute to highlighting recent findings and acquiring a comprehensive perspective on the current status of this broad research field. Since some extreme marine environments are somehow underrated from a microbiological point of view, this Special Issue will also contribute to filling gaps in this growing research topic. FLYER

The Special Issue, New Advances in Ecosystem Services, Biodiversity, and Environmental Sustainability, will investigate the latest advances in the sustainable exploitation of different ecosystems and exploration of their potential. We are inviting scientific contributions assessing new biomolecules and the potential of bioremediation using organisms and microorganisms, as well as those evaluating their environmental impact, environmental response, and the assessment of their extent and limits.
Submission Deadlines 30 June 2023.

A special issue of Remote Sensing (ISSN 2072-4292). This special issue belongs to the section Biogeosciences Remote Sensing.
The scope of this Special Issue is to collect research articles focused on, but not limited to, applications of remote-sensing data/techniques combined with other approaches to better monitor and/or understand processes occurring on snow-covered and glaciated areas, in different environmental frameworks. Manuscripts using novel approaches based on data integration and on multimission products are particularly welcome.
Deadline for manuscript submissions: 20 May 2023

A special issue of Water (ISSN 2073-4441). This special issue belongs to the section "Soil and Water".
The Special Issue aims to investigate and understand the sources, fate, transport, and effects of persistent and emerging organic contaminants on natural ecosystems. These contaminants are spread in all environmental compartments at middle and high latitudes due to their worldwide production and consumption related to anthropogenic activities. Most of these organic micropollutants cause adverse effects on organisms at different levels of the trophic web. In this scenario, the investigation of the potential effects and toxicity associated with their occurrence in abiotic and biotic natural compartments can not be negligible. This Special Issue will update the state-of-the-art and partially fill the knowledge gap regarding these contaminants.
Submission Deadlines 31 January 2023.

Al via la spedizione del progetto Sentinel sul ghiacciaio Holtedahlfonna, con la partecipazione della Fondazione Ice Memory
Un gruppo internazionale di scienziati ha raggiunto il 1° aprile 2023 il ghiacciaio Holtedahlfonna, nell'arcipelago delle Svalbard, iniziando la preparazione di un campo remoto a 1.100 metri di quota nell'Artico (latitudine 79,15 Nord). La spedizione è guidata dal CNR-ISP e coinvolge scienziati del Centro nazionale francese per la ricerca scientifica (Cnrs), dell'Istituto polare norvegese, dell'Università Ca' Foscari Venezia e dell'Università degli Studi di Perugia. L'obiettivo scientifico è raccogliere due carote di ghiaccio di 125 metri ciascuna per comprendere meglio il fenomeno dell' amplificazione artica ovvero del fenomeno dovuto alla riduzione della copertura del ghiaccio marino che ha tra le sue conseguenze il riscaldamento dell’oceano.

Si occupa principalmente di studi paleoclimatici e dei processi all’interfaccia fra neve ed atmosfera con particolare attenzione ai processi post-deposizionali. Si occupa di misure di elementi in tracce (e della loro speciazione) nelle carote di ghiaccio con un focus particolare al ferro, per il suo ruolo attivo nella fertilizzazione oceanica, ed alogeni per la loro dipendenza da processi collegati a variazioni del ghiaccio marino.
È interessato inoltre agli impatti causati dalle civiltà passate ed ai cambiamenti che queste hanno causato nella composizione chimica dell'atmosfera passata. È coinvolto in misure di aerosol in ambienti polari con il fine di studiare il ciclo biogeochimico di elementi in tracce, composti biogenici e black carbon e di valutare le possibili variazioni nel periodo recente. Ha partecipato a numerose spedizioni scientifiche polari, sia in Artide che in Antartide e in aree alpine. È inoltre coinvolto attivamente nella stima dei bilanci di massa in alcuni ghiacciai delle Svalbard.
