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

ABSTRACT Gulf of Mexico sediments harbor numerous hydrocarbon seeps associated with high sedimentation rates and thermal maturation of organic matter. These ecosystems host abundant and diverse microbial communities that directly or indirectly metabolize components of the emitted fluid. To investiga...
