Geomicrobiology
Hyperthermophiles are microorganisms that thrive at extremely high temperatures, typically above 80°C (176°F), and often found in environments such as hot springs and geysers. These organisms play a crucial role in the microbial ecology of these extreme habitats, participating in biogeochemical cycles and influencing the overall ecosystem functioning.
