Carbon isotopic compositions and concentrations of major fatty acids in the Beggiatoa covered sediment core at the crest of southern Hydrate Ridge (2009)

Elvert, Marcus, Boetius, Antje, Knittel, K, Joergensen, Bo Barker

Membrane fatty acids were extracted from a sediment core above marine gas hydrates at Hydrate Ridge, NE Pacific. Anaerobic sediments from this environment are characterized by high sulfate reduction...

Biogeochemistry of a low-activity cold seep in the Larsen B area, western Weddell Sea, Antarctica (2009)

H. Niemann, D. Fischer, D. Graffe, K. Knittel, A. Montiel, O. Heilmayer, ...

First videographic indication of an Antarctic cold seep ecosystem was recently obtained from the collapsed Larsen B ice shelf, western Weddell Sea (Domack et al., 2005). Within the framework of the...

Biogeochemical processes and microbial diversity of the Gullfaks and Tommeliten methane seeps (Northern North Sea) (2008)

Wegener, G., Shovitri, M., Knittel, K., Niemann, H., Hovland, M., Boetius, A.

Fluid-flow related seafloor structures and gas seeps were detected in the North Sea in the 1970s and 1980s by acoustic sub-bottom profiling and oil rig surveys. A variety of features like pockmarks,...

Novel microbial communities of the Haakon Mosby mud volcano and their role as a methane sink (2006)

NIEMANN, H, LOSEKANN, T, DE BEER, D, ELVERT, M, NADALIG, T, KNITTEL, K, ...

Mud volcanism is an important natural source of the greenhouse gas methane to the hydrosphere and atmosphere(1,2). Recent investigations show that the number of active submarine mud volcanoes might...

Microbial reefs in the Black Sea fueled by anaerobic oxidation of methane (2002)

Michaelis, W., Seifert, R., Nauhaus, K., Treude, T., Thiel, V., Blumenberg, M., ...

Massive microbial mats covering up to 4-meter-high carbonate buildups prosper at methane seeps in anoxic waters of the northwestern Black Sea shelf. Strong C-13 depletions indicate an incorporation...
