Location, specific topography, and hydrographic setting together with climate change and
strong anthropogenic pressure are the main factors shaping the biogeochemical functioning …

Sediment hypoxia is a growing problem and has negative ecological impacts on the aquatic
ecosystem. Hypoxia can disturb the biodiversity and biogeochemical cycles of both …

The energy conversion in Earth's surface environments over geological history heavily
involves the redox reactions of natural minerals. Natural Mn (III/IV) oxides and Mn 2+(aq) is …

Pyrite formation in marine sedimentary environments plays a key role in the global
biogeochemical cycles of carbon, sulfur and iron, regulating Earth's surface redox balance …

Cable bacteria (CB) are filamentous Desulfobulbaceae that split the energy-conserving
reaction of sulfide oxidation into two half reactions occurring in distinct cells. CB can use …

Cable bacteria have been identified and detected worldwide since their discovery in marine
sediments in Aarhus Bay, Denmark. Their activity can account for the majority of oxygen …

Until recently, the data on the diversity of the entire microbial community from the Baltic Sea
were relatively rare and very scarce. However, modern molecular methods have provided …

Continental shelves are a major source of iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn) to marine waters.
Here, we investigate controls on benthic release of Fe and Mn and the impact on the water …

Previous studies have demonstrated that e-SO x can regulate the sedimentary release of
phosphorus (P) in brackish and marine sediments. When e-SO x is active, an iron (Fe) and …

Cable bacteria (CB) are Desulfobulbaceae that couple sulphide oxidation to oxygen
reduction over centimetre distances by mediating electric currents. Recently, it was …
