    Genome diversification in globally distributed novel marine Proteobacteria is linked to environmental adaptation

    Reconstruction of genomes from deep-sea hydrothermal plumes Hydrothermal vent plume and background deep-sea samples were acquired during the following cruises: R/V New Horizon to Guaymas Basin (July 2004), R/V Atlantis to Mid-Cayman Rise (Jan 2012 and Jun 2013) for Cayman Deep (Piccard) and Shallow (Von Damm) plume and background seawater samples, and R/V Thomas G […] More

    Influence of tectonics on global scale distribution of geological methane emissions

    Influence of basin geodynamics and petroleum fields We applied GIS-based geospatial and geostatistical analyses to evaluate the relationship between hydrocarbon seep distribution, basin geodynamics and petroleum fields (see Methods). Convergent basins include retroarc, forearc, arc-related wrench and foreland basins associated with fold-and-thrust belts and form in geodynamic settings characterised by continental shortening and tectonic loading20 […] More
