The central rift of the Red Sea contains 25 brine pools with different physicochemical
conditions, dictating the diversity and abundance of the microbial community. Three of these …

Abstract In the Red Sea, two neighboring deep-sea brine pools, Atlantis II and Discovery,
have been studied extensively and the results have shown that the temperature and …

Microbes play a crucial role in mediating the methane flux in deep-sea cold seep
ecosystems, where only methane-related microbes have been well studied, while the whole …

Methane seep systems along continental margins host diverse and dynamic microbial
assemblages, sustained in large part through the microbially mediated process of sulfate …

At marine methane seeps, vast quantities of methane move through the shallow subseafloor,
where it is largely consumed by microbial communities. This process plays an important role …

Methane seeps are widespread seafloor ecosystems shaped by the emission of gas from
seabed reservoirs. The microorganisms inhabiting methane seeps transform the chemical …

Marine microbial communities can consume dissolved methane before it can escape to the
atmosphere and contribute to global warming. Seawater over the shallow Arctic shelf is …

Inputs of CH4 from sediments, including methane seeps on the continental margin and
methane‐rich mud volcanoes on the abyssal plain, make the Black Sea the world's largest …

Subterranean estuaries (STEs) are important coastal biogeochemical reactors facilitating
unique niches for microbial communities. A common approach in determining STE …

Cold seeps, located along the Sonora Margin transform fault in the Guaymas Basin, were
extensively explored during the 'BIG'cruise in June 2010. They present a seafloor mosaic …
