Cold Seeps in a Warming Arctic: Insights for Benthic Ecology [PDF]
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 ...

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.

Transcriptomic analysis reveals insights into deep-sea adaptations of the dominant species, Shinkaia crosnieri (Crustacea: Decapoda: Anomura), inhabiting both hydrothermal vents and cold seeps [PDF]
Background Hydrothermal vents and cold seeps are typical deep-sea chemosynthetically-driven ecosystems that allow high abundance of specialized macro-benthos.

Chemosynthetic and photosynthetic trophic support from cold seeps in Arctic benthic communities [PDF]
Benthic communities below the photic zone are largely reliant on the export of surface-water primary production and the flux of partially degraded organic matter to the seabed, i.e. pelagic−benthic coupling.

Population genetic structure in Sabatieria (Nematoda) reveals intermediary gene flow and admixture between distant cold seeps from the Mediterranean Sea [PDF]
Background There is a general lack of information on the dispersal and genetic structuring for populations of small-sized deep-water taxa, including free-living nematodes which inhabit and dominate the seafloor sediments. This is also true for unique and

MICROORGANISMS OF MARINE COLD HYDROCARBON SEEPS
Marine hydrocarbon seeps, due to their unique geophysical and geochemical characteristics, form unique conditions for the development of specific microbial communities. Diverse and interconnected metabolic activities of them underlie global ecological processes. In this review were considered the geophysical and chemical conditions for the formation of

Cold Seeps Extreme24 Expedition Report
The Cold Seeps Extreme24 Expedition was the second leg of two expeditions, which form part of the University of Tromsø’s Extreme 24 project. The expedition focused on cold seeps sites characterised by methane emissions in several localities in the Barents Sea. The expedition is a research initiative (PI G.
