Hydrothermal plumes as hotspots for deep-ocean heterotrophic microbial biomass production
Nature Communications, 2021 Hydrothermal vents are biogeochemically important, but their contribution to the carbon cycle is poorly constrained. Here the authors build a biogeochemical model that estimates autotrophic and heterotrophic production rates of microbial communities ...
