Methane Hydrates and Related Phenomena
Description: This cluster of papers focuses on the anaerobic oxidation of methane, particularly in relation to gas hydrates, microbial communities in subseafloor sediments, and the biogeochemical processes involved. It explores the role of archaea, nitrite-driven methane oxidation, and denitrification in marine environments.
