Chemical communication between bacteria in iron-rich lake aggregates

Iron-rich pelagic aggregates have been termed “iron snow” which are different from the more organically rich snow-like aggregates known from marine and freshwater environment. The pelagic aggregates formed in the water column through adsorption of inorgan
