摘要: World climate is not only a function of atmospheric physics but chemistry as well. In fact, the science community investigating questions on developed rapidly after publication pioneering monograph by Christian Junge in 1963. Since then, it has become clear that atmosphere highly dynamic. composition presently changing direction ultimately may alter global and regional Earth (Houghton et al., 1990). Interesting to microbiologists fact large extent result Earth’s biosphere, with microbial processes. For example, was evolution oxygenic photosynthesis cyanobacteria allowed production significant amounts O2 (Schidlowski, 1983; Holland, 1984). This finally resulted accumulation so-far anoxic atmosphere, thus one most dramatic shifts habitability our planet, i.e., shift dominance anaerobic aerobic life.
