Microbial diversity gradients in the geothermal mud volcano underlying the hypersaline Urania Basin
Mud volcanoes transport deep fluidized sediment and their microbial communities and thus provide a window into the deep biosphere. However, mud volcanoes are commonly sampled at the surface and not probed at greater depths, with the consequence that their internal geochemistry and microbiology remai...
