Microbial diversity gradients in the geothermal mud volcano underlying the hypersaline Urania Basin [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Mud volcanoes transport deep fluidized sediment and their microbial communities and thus provide a window into the deep biosphere. However, mud volcanoes are commonly sampled at the surface and not probed at greater depths, with the consequence that ...

Characteristics of Lusi mud volcano and its impacts on the Porong River [PDF]
Journal of Degraded and Mining Lands Management, 2014 Since the first gas and mud volcano spewed from well at Sidoarjo, East Java, Indonesia (called Lusi or Lapindo mud) in 2006, its keep flowing ever since. Despite the occurrence of Lusi mud volcano was debated. Either it was natural or unnatural disaster,

Mineralosphere Microbiome Leading to Changed Geochemical Properties of Sedimentary Rocks from Aiqigou Mud Volcano, Northwest China [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2021 The properties of rocks can be greatly affected by seepage hydrocarbons in petroleum-related mud volcanoes. Among them, the color of sedimentary rocks can reflect the changes of sedimentary environment and weathering history.

A constellation of mud volcanoes originated from a buried Arctic mega-slide, Southwestern Barents Sea [PDF]
Scientific ReportsGlobal estimates on the number of submarine mud volcanoes are highly uncertain, as well as their role in the deep-sea biosphere and methane budgets. Here, we report the discovery of ten Arctic mud volcanoes in the Barents Sea (440–480 m depth), where ...
