Morphogenesis and oxygen dynamics in phototrophic biofilms growing across a gradient of hydraulic conditions

Summary: Biofilms are surface-attached and matrix-enclosed microbial communities that dominate microbial life in numerous ecosystems. Using flumes and automated optical coherence tomography, we studied the morphogenesis of phototrophic biofilms along a gradient of hydraulic conditions. Compact and c...
