Hydrothermal iron (Fe)-rich sediments were recovered from the Tagoro underwater volcano
(Central Atlantic) that formed during the 2011–2012 volcanic event. Cruises in 2012 and …

Life at hydrothermal vent sites is based on chemosynthetic primary producers that supply
heterotrophic microorganisms with substrates and generate biomass for higher trophic …

Microbial communities composed of bacteria, archaea and fungi play a pivotal role in driving
the biogeochemical cycles in the marine ecosystem. Despite the vastness of the South …

A survey of marine pelagic coastal microbial communities was conducted over a large
geographic latitude range, from Cape Mendocino in northern California USA to Queen …

Siboglinids were sampled from four mud volcanoes in the Gulf of Cádiz (El Cid MV,
