In-situ detection of microbial life in the deep biosphere in igneous ocean crust

In-situ detection of microbial life in the deep biosphere in igneous ocean crust

The deep biosphere is a major frontier to science. Recent studies have shown the presence and activity of cells in deep marine sediments and in the continental deep biosphere. Volcanic lavas in the deep ocean subsurface, through which substantial fluid flow occurs, present another potentially mass...
