Biogeochemical aspects of the anaerobic oxidation of methane in diffusive ocean margin sediments

Ocean margin sediments are an extensive reservoir of methane, but methane release from these settings to the atmosphere is only a minor component of the global atmospheric methane budget, because of subsurface consumption by the anaerobicoxidation of methane (AOM). In this study, a combined geochemi...
