Dihydrogen (H2) is a promising source of energy in the field of energy transition. Similarly to
natural gas, identifying storage solutions for large volumes of H2 is essential. Geological …

Subducting oceanic crusts release fluids rich in biologically relevant compounds into the
overriding plate, fueling subsurface chemolithoautotrophic ecosystems. To understand the …

Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) represent a group of prokaryotic microorganisms that are
widely spread in the anoxic environment (seabed, riverbed and lakebed sediments, mud …

Abstract The Oman Drilling Project established an “Active Alteration” multi‐borehole
observatory in peridotites undergoing low‐temperature serpentinization in the Samail …

The phylum Nitrospirota (previously known as Nitrospirae or Nitrospira) currently
encompasses a limited number of bacterial species with validly published names, including …

An enigmatic uncultured member of Firmicutes, Candidatus Desulforudis audaxviator (CDA),
is known by its genome retrieved from the deep gold mine in South Africa, where it formed a …

The potential for molecular hydrogen () generated via serpentinization to fuel subsurface
microbial ecosystems independent from photosynthesis has prompted biogeochemical …

Microorganisms are main drivers of the sulfur, nitrogen and carbon biogeochemical cycles.
These elemental cycles are interconnected by the activity of different guilds in sediments or …

Representatives of the genus Thermodesulfovibrio are widespread thermophilic sulfate-
reducing bacteria. The genus currently includes five species with validly published names …

Most microorganisms from deep terrestrial subsurface remain yet uncultured. Recent
achievements in recovery of metagenome‐assembled genomes (MAG) provide clues for …
