Viruses are a key regulator of the microbial carbon cycle in the deep-sea biosphere [PDF]
Environmental Science and EcotechnologyThe marine biosphere profoundly influences atmospheric chemistry and climate through its carbon cycle. Viruses, the most abundant and diverse entities in marine ecosystems, significantly shape global carbon dynamics by infecting microbes and altering ...

Advances in Defining Ecosystem Functions of the Terrestrial Subsurface Biosphere
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 The subsurface is one of the last remaining ‘uncharted territories’ of Earth and is now accepted as a biosphere in its own right, at least as critical to Earth systems as the surface biosphere.

Microbial Life of the Deep Biosphere
, 2014 This book brings together a variety of topics, covering the broad range of issues that are associated with deep biosphere exploration. In order to explain our observations from deep subsurface ecosystems it is necessary to develop interdisciplinary approaches, ranging from microbiology and geochemistry to physics and modeling.

Weighing the deep continental biosphere [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2013 There is abundant evidence for widespread microbial activity in deep continental fractures and aquifers, with important implications for biogeochemical cycling on Earth and the habitability of other planetary bodies. Whitman et al. (P Natl Acad Sci USA, 95, 1998, 6578) estimated a continental subsurface biomass on the order of 10(16) -10(17) g C.

The hadal zone is an important and heterogeneous sink of black carbon in the ocean
Communications Earth & Environment, 2022 Black carbon accumulation rates in hadal trenches in the deepest regions of the oceans could be seven-fold higher than the global ocean average, according to geochemical and isotopic analyses of sediments from six trenches in the Pacific Ocean.
