Contrasting Pathways for Anaerobic Methane Oxidation in Gulf of Mexico Cold Seep Sediments

Contrasting Pathways for Anaerobic Methane Oxidation in Gulf of Mexico Cold Seep Sediments

Cold seep sediments are complex and widespread marine ecosystems emitting large amounts of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, and other hydrocarbons. Within these sediments, microbial communities play crucial roles in production and degradation of hydrocarbons, modulating oil and gas emissions to sea...
