Biogeochemical Evidence that Thermophilic Archaea Mediate the Anaerobic Oxidation of Methane

Distributions and isotopic analyses of lipids from sediment cores at a hydrothermally active site in the Guaymas Basin with a steep sedimentary temperature gradient revealed the presence of archaea that oxidize methane anaerobically. The presence of strongly (13)C-depleted lipids at greater depths i...
