Evidence of microbial activity from a shallow water whale fall (Voghera, northern Italy) [PDF]
, 2012 The fossil bones, associated carbonate cements and enclosing concretion of a Miocene mysticete from inner shelf deposits (Monte Vallassa Formation, northern Italy) were analyzed for evidence of microbial activity. Optical and scanning electron microscopy,

Diversity and Distribution of Methanotrophic Archaea at Cold Seeps [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2005 ABSTRACT In this study we investigated by using 16S rRNA-based methods the distribution and biomass of archaea in samples from (i) sediments above outcropping methane hydrate at Hydrate Ridge (Cascadia margin off Oregon) and (ii) massive microbial mats enclosing carbonate reefs (Crimea area, Black Sea). The archaeal diversity was

Stable and Clumped Isotope Characterization of Authigenic Carbonates in Methane Cold Seep Environments [PDF]
, 2020 Cold seep environments are characterized by methane-rich fluid migration and discharge at the seafloor. These environments are also intimately linked to microbial communities, which oxidize methane anaerobically, increase alkalinity and promote ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The barrier layer is designed comprehensively by thermal expansion coefficient and interfacial reaction energy to yield a controlled interfacial reaction. Ultimately, the Co25Fe50Ni25/half‐Heusler joint simultaneously achieves low contact resistivity and high bonding strength.

Tubular carbonate concretions as hydrocarbon migration pathways? Examples from North Island, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2006 Cold seep carbonate deposits are associated with the development on the sea floor of distinctive chemosyn¬thetic animal communities and carbonate minerali¬sation as a consequence of microbially mediated anaerobic oxidation of methane.

Acoustic and optical observations of methane gas seeps in the Gulf of Mexico [PDF]
, 2013 In 2011 and 2012, measurements of acoustic backscatter from natural methane seeps were made in the northern Gulf of Mexico in water depths between 1000-2000 m.
