Distinct methane-dependent biogeochemical states in Arctic seafloor gas hydrate mounds
Archaea in marine sediment control the transfer of methane to the ocean, but microbial dynamics in these environments are poorly understood. Here the authors investigate marine sediments in the high Arctic, showing how methane influx quickly increases ...

Branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (brGDGTs) are bacterial membrane lipids that are widely used in terrestrial paleoclimatic reconstructions. Recent studies have reported that brGDGTs can also be produced by marine bacteria.

Global Warming and Mass Extinctions Associated With Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Archaea are differentiated from the other two domains of life by their biomolecular characteristics. One such characteristic is the unique structure and composition of their lipids.

Cold seeps on the continental margins are characterized by intense microbial activities that consume a large portion of methane by anaerobic methanotrophic archaea (ANME) through anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM).

Marine Planktonic Archaea Take Up Amino Acids [PDF]
ABSTRACT Archaea are traditionally thought of as “extremophiles,” but recent studies have shown that marine planktonic Archaea make up a surprisingly large percentage of ocean midwater microbial communities, up to 60% of the total prokaryotes.

Carbon recycling efficiency and phosphate turnover by marine nitrifying archaea [PDF]
Efficient thaumarchaeal chemoautotrophs recycle ~5% of remineralized C and P and release dissolved organics to the ocean.

Archaea in coastal marine environments. [PDF]
Archaea (archaebacteria) are a phenotypically diverse group of microorganisms that share a common evolutionary history. There are four general phenotypic groups of archaea: the methanogens, the extreme halophiles, the sulfate-reducing archaea, and the extreme thermophiles. In the marine environment, archaeal habitats are generally limited to shallow or

Stratified Communities of Active Archaea in Deep Marine Subsurface Sediments [PDF]
ABSTRACT Archaeal 16S rRNA was extracted from samples of deep marine subsurface sediments from Peru Margin site 1227, Ocean Drilling Program leg 201. The amounts of archaeal 16S rRNA in each extract were quantified by serial dilution and reverse transcription (RT)-PCR.
