Bacterial discovery in deep-sea could revolutionize sulfur cycle understanding!
Microbes in deep-sea cold seeps help create sulfur. A bacterium called E. flavus 21-3 was found in these seeps. It uses a new way to turn thiosulfate into sulfur.
Gas hydrates act as natural methane capacitors, stabilizing deep-sea ecosystems.
Irregular cold seep eruptions disrupt ocean ecosystem biogeochemistry.
Deep-sea bacteria discovered producing essential sulfur compound in ocean depths!
