Environmental controls on microbial communities in continental serpentinite fluids

Environmental controls on microbial communities in continental serpentinite fluids

Geochemical reactions associated with serpentinization alter the composition of dissolved organic compounds in circulating fluids and potentially liberate mantle-derived carbon and reducing power to support subsurface microbial communities. Previous studies have identified Betaproteobacteria from t...
