Coastal zones are among the world's most productive ecosystems. They store vast amounts
of organic carbon, as 'blue carbon'reservoirs, and impact global climate change. Archaeal …

Chemosynthesis is a metabolic process that transfers carbon to the biosphere using
reduced compounds. It is well recognised that chemosynthesis occurs in much of the ocean …

Anaerobic methane oxidation exerts a key control on greenhouse gas emissions, yet factors
that modulate the activity of microorganisms performing this function remain poorly …

Coastal ecosystems can efficiently remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and
are thus promoted for nature-based climate change mitigation. Natural methane (CH4) …

The sequestration of organic carbon (OC) in wetland sediments is influenced by the
presence of oxygen or lack thereof. The mechanisms of OC sequestration under redox …

Coastal wetlands are an important source of methane emissions, and understanding the
mechanisms that control methane emissions from coastal wetlands is of great significance to …

Coastal methane (CH4) emissions dominate the global ocean CH4 budget and can offset
the “blue carbon” storage capacity of vegetated coastal ecosystems. However, current …

Anaerobic methanotrophic (ANME) archaea are environmentally important, uncultivated
microorganisms that oxidize the potent greenhouse gas methane. During methane …

Microbial life is widespread in the terrestrial subsurface and present down to several
kilometers depth, but the energy sources that fuel metabolism in deep oligotrophic and …

Anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) in wetland soils is widely recognized as a key sink
for the greenhouse gas methane (CH 4). The occurrence of this reaction is influenced by …
