Macro-Ecology of Gulf of Mexico Cold Seeps
Annual Review of Marine Science, 2009Shortly after the discovery of chemosynthetic ecosystems at deep-sea hydrothermal vents, similar ecosystems were found at cold seeps in the Gulf of Mexico. Over the past two decades, these sites have become model systems for understanding the physiology of the symbiont-containing megafauna and the ecology of seep communities worldwide.

Methods for the Study of Cold Seep Ecosystems
2010The discovery of huge subsurface reservoirs of methane in the form of gas hydrate, has fueled the interest in the associated seep ecosystems and their role as barriers against this greenhouse gas. Technological advances in high-resolution mapping and optical imaging, as well as in situ chemical analyses of the deep seafloor have helped to reveal the ...

Neogene cold-seep microbial carbonates (Crotone Basin - South Italy)
2023For the first time, the Neogene cold seep carbonate deposits of the Crotone Basin (south Italy) are described. These deposits form a carbonate body reaching a maximum length of 350 m and a thickness 40 m and are characterized by a conduit facies made of authigenic carbonates filling the previously active gas/fluid escape pipes.

Effects of microplastics on cold seep sediment prokaryotic communities
Environmental PollutionCold seep sediments are an important reservoir of microplastics (MPs) whose impact on the structure and function of prokaryotic community is not well understood. In this study, the impact of 0.2% and 1% (w/w) polyethylene (PE), polystyrene (PS), and polypropylene (PP) MPs on the cold seep sediment prokaryotic community was investigated in a 120-day ...

A new cold seep, southwest of Svalbard
West of Svalbard, several cold seeps are well known and described such as the Vestnesa Ridge and its large pockmarks which have been known for decades. Many seeps have also been found in various areas on the continental shelf west of Svalbard, but without specific morphological signatures.Valerie K. Bellec +6 more
