An ecosystem is all the organisms living in a place together with their environment. An ecosystem can be huge, such as a large forest or desert. Or it can be small, such as a small pool or a single bush. Each ecosystem has its own collection of living and nonliving things.A swamp ...
After living in the desert, I have come to learn many things. Maybe the most important is that this is a beautiful and fragile place. As in all ecosystems, desert organisms have evolved and adapted to fill a particular niche, but their apparent heartiness belies their fragility. Over the ye...
A response to a directional light stimulus that involves movement of a whole organism. This is advantageous for phototrophic organisms as they can orient themselves most efficiently to receive light for photosynthesis. Phototaxis is called positive if the movement is in the direction of increasing lig...
The Antarctic continent hosts life forms specially adapted to the extreme climatic challenges. Among these organisms are nematodes, key organisms in the cy
Rachel Sussman shows photographs of the world's oldest continuously living organisms -- from 2,000-year-old brain coral off Tobago's coast to an "underground forest" in South Africa that has lived since before the dawn of agriculture.
Three decades later, the biodiversity of the area has completely recovered and all the large mammals of Eastern Europe, as well as over 200 bird species, now live in Chernobyl. The mechanisms that allow organisms to live in this area are still the subject of study and c...
Initially conceptualized in terms of abiotic dissolution reactions alone, the past two decades have seen growing evidence of the potential of living organisms, including bacteria5, fungi6, plants7, and animals8to influence weathering, alone or synergistically9. Depending on the environmental or experime...

The Oldest Living Things in the World is an epic journey through time and space. Over the past decade, artist Rachel Sussman has researched, worked with biologists, and traveled the world from Antarctica to the Mojave Desert in order to photograph continuously living organisms that are at least...
