Habitat Diversity Sustains Ecosystem Functioning in Plateau Arid‐Region Wetlands
Habitat diversity underpins both biodiversity and functional biogeochemical processes in plateau arid‐region wetlands, thereby stabilizing ecosystem functioning. These functionally complementary habitats collectively drive critical ecosystem processes.

Methane oxidation in permeable sediments at hydrocarbon seeps in the Santa Barbara Channel, California [PDF]
A shallow-water area in the Santa Barbara Channel, California, known collectively as the Coal Oil Point seep field, is one of the largest natural submarine hydrocarbon emission areas in the world.

Prokaryotic communities and methane dynamics differed markedly across 16 sub‐Arctic waterbodies. Maximum depth and permafrost thaw emerged as key drivers, with non‐stratified thaw‐affected sites hosting distinct communities and elevated methane fluxes, highlighting their potential role as emerging hotspots of methane emissions.

Effect of freshwater mussels on the vertical distribution of anaerobic ammonia oxidizers and other nitrogen-transforming microorganisms in upper Mississippi river sediment [PDF]
Targeted qPCR and non-targeted amplicon sequencing of 16S rRNA genes within sediment layers identified the anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) niche and characterized microbial community changes attributable to freshwater mussels.

Diffuse flow environments within basalt- and sediment-based hydrothermal vent ecosystems harbor specialized microbial communities [PDF]
Hydrothermal vents differ both in surface input and subsurface geochemistry. The effects of these differences on their microbial communities are not clear.

A cold methane-seep was discovered in a forearc sediment basin off the island Sumatra, exhibiting a methane-seep adapted microbial community. A defined seep centre of activity, like in mud volcanoes, was not discovered.

Classifying the metal dependence of uncharacterized nitrogenases [PDF]
Nitrogenase enzymes have evolved complex iron–sulfur (Fe–S) containing cofactors that most commonly contain molybdenum (MoFe, Nif) as a heterometal but also exist as vanadium (VFe, Vnf) and heterometal-independent (Fe-only, Anf) forms.

The first metagenome‐assembled genomes (MAGs) from Guerrero Negro hypersaline microbial mats were recovered from natural and incubated samples. These MAGs include dominant and rare taxa, whose metabolic potential provides clues to metabolic versatility in the cycling of three elements (carbon, sulfur, and nitrogen) at the genome and community levels ...

Chemotrophic Microbial Mats and Their Potential for Preservation in the Rock Record [PDF]
Putative microbialites are commonly regarded to have formed in association with photosynthetic microorganisms, such as cyanobacteria. However, many modern microbial mat ecosystems are dominated by chemotrophic bacteria and archaea.
