| Our second geographic area of research was the Atacama Desertof northern Chile where we continued monitoring stromatolite growth in saline lagoons. This research involved two research fellows and a consultant. Program expenses pertain to field activities, sample analyses and writing reports and publications. Two papers were published from results of this research : 1. Suosaari, E.P., Dupraz, C., Oehlert, A.M., Lascu, I., Vitek, B.E., Piggot, A.M. Palma, A.T., Reid, R.P. (2025) Coupled authigenic Mg silicate and carbonate precipitation in saline lakes of the Salar de Atacama, Northern Chile. The Depositional Record, 00, 1-18. https://doi.org/10.1002/dep2.70055 and 2. Kong, T., Reid, R.P.; Suosaari, E.P., Maizel,D., Daza, L.R., Palma, A.T., Oehlert, A.M. 2025. Lake morphology and meteorological conditions impact stratification of saline lakes in the Atacama Desert. Plos One https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0321759. Program service costs include payments to university laboratories for sample analysis and consulting services. | $0 | $50,098 |
| A third area of research activity was Western Australia,where we cont'd research into modern marine stromatolites in Shark Bay. This research involved one research fellow, Erica Suosaari who is working on a monograph summarizing publications resulting from all our research in Shark Bay for the past 20 years. An additional paper documenting results from our Shark Bay research was published: Pollier, C.G.L., Reid, R.P., Suosaari, E.P., Vitek B. E., Dupraz C., Oehlert A. M.. Arsenic enrichment patterns are defined by microbialite morphology, fabric, and accretion mechanism. Nature Communications 16, 10218 (2025). https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-025-65007-4. Program expenses largely supported the research fellow. | $25,000 | $0 |
| Program activities in the Bahamas in 2025 involved maintenance of the Darby Island Research Station, and eventual closure of the lab due to the sale of Little Darby Island. Lab equipment and resources were donated to Bahamas National Trust Moriah Harbor Cay National Park. One publication from research at the research station: Kalderon-Asael, B., Wang, J., Planavsky, Oehlert, A.M., N.J., Vitek, B.E., Reid, R.P., Tarhan, L.J. 2025. Evaluation of early diagenetic signatures of lithium and stable strontium isotopes in shallow marine carbonate sediments. Chemical Geology v. 676. | $0 | $20,705 |
