A New Method for Training CycleGAN to Enhance Images of Cold Seeps in the Qiongdongnan Sea
Sensors, 2023 Clear underwater images can help researchers detect cold seeps, gas hydrates, and biological resources. However, the quality of these images suffers from nonuniform lighting, a limited range of visibility, and unwanted signals.

Microbial Eukaryotes Associated With Sediments in Deep-Sea Cold Seeps
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Microbial eukaryotes are key components of the marine food web, but their distribution in deep-sea chemosynthetic ecosystems has not been well studied. Here, high-throughput sequencing of the 18S rRNA gene and network analysis were applied to investigate

Cold Seeps in a Warming Arctic: Insights for Benthic Ecology [PDF]
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 Cold-seep benthic communities in the Arctic exist at the nexus of two extreme environments; one reflecting the harsh physical extremes of the Arctic environment and another reflecting the chemical extremes and strong environmental gradients associated ...

Septentrio Educational, 2023 Focus: To listen to the Arctic Ocean’s sounds and to learn about the Arctic Ocean’s biodiversity, particularly near cold seeps. We will experiment with creating new sound expressions inspired by the Ocean. For pupils with hearing impairment, pupils can create a bodily expression of this and/or use instruments they are comfortable with.

Active pathways of anaerobic methane oxidization in deep-sea cold seeps of the South China Sea
Microbiology Spectrum, 2023 Anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) is critical for controlling methane emissions from deep-sea cold seeps. Microbial groups associated with different AOM processes have been briefly investigated, but the AOM activities associated with the utilization ...

Unexpected genetic and microbial diversity for arsenic cycling in deep sea cold seep sediments
npj Biofilms and Microbiomes, 2023 Cold seeps, where cold hydrocarbon-rich fluid escapes from the seafloor, show strong enrichment of toxic metalloid arsenic (As). The toxicity and mobility of As can be greatly altered by microbial processes that play an important role in global As ...

A cold seep triggered by a hot ridge subduction [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 AbstractThe Chile Triple Junction, where the hot active spreading centre of the Chile Rise system subducts beneath the South American plate, offers a unique opportunity to understand the influence of the anomalous thermal regime on an otherwise cold continental margin.

Tracing the Century‐Long Evolution of Microplastics Deposition in a Cold Seep
Advanced Science, 2023 Microplastic (MP) pollution is one of the greatest threats to marine ecosystems. Cold seeps are characterized by methane‐rich fluid seepage fueling one of the richest ecosystems on the seafloor, and there are approximately more than 900 cold seeps ...
