High Microeukaryotic Diversity in the Cold-Seep Sediment
Microeukaryotic diversity, community structure, and their regulating mechanisms remain largely unclear in chemosynthetic ecosystems. Here, using high-throughput sequencing data of 18S rRNA genes, we explored microeukaryotic communities from the Haima cold seep in the northern South China Sea.

Abstract This research aims to study the intelligent wireless sensor to improve the water permeability of permeable asphalt concrete pavement. The water permeability of pavement is extremely important for the traffic environment. This study first briefly introduces the background and significance analysis, and then exemplifies the deployment algorithm ...

Methane-carbon flow into the benthic food web at cold seeps – a case study from the Costa Rica subduction zone [PDF]
Cold seep ecosystems can support enormous biomasses of free-living and symbiotic chemoautotrophic organisms that get their energy from the oxidation of methane or sulfide.

AbstractIn deep-sea chemosynthetic ecosystems, macrofaunal diversity and distribution are determined by geochemical environments generated by fluid seepage. The South China Sea is located in the northwestern Pacific Ocean with a passive continental shelf, containing over 40 seep sites.

Diversity and Distribution of Methanotrophic Archaea at Cold Seeps [PDF]
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

Biomarker Indicators of Cold Seeps
AbstractLipid biomarkers of seep carbonates and sediments retrieved from the Dongsha area, Shenhu, Site F and Haima in the South China Sea (SCS) over the last two decades were studied. Biomarker inventories, microbial consortia, seepage dynamics, and biogeochemical processes of anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM), aerobic oxidation of methane (AeOM ...

Structure and drivers of cold seep ecosystems [PDF]
Submarine hydrocarbon seeps are geologically driven "hotspots" of increased biological activity on the seabed. As part of the HERMES project, several sites of natural hydrocarbon seepage in the European seas were investigated in detail, including mud volcanoes and pockmarks, in study areas extending from the Nordic margin, to the Gulf of Cádiz, to the ...

‘Cold’ seeps (or cold vents) are seafloor manifestations of fluid migration through sediments from the subsurface to the seabed and into the water column, and may reach the atmosphere. They are an important but not fully understood process in our oceans that has important repercussions on human society and on the climate.
