This project investigates the fundamental functions of microbial communities in the deep subsurface biosphere, focusing on their energy-limited lifestyles and roles in geochemical processes. It aims to enhance understanding of methanogenesis and microbial diversity, impacting carbon cycling and climate change.
Our aim is to understand basic functions of the predominant microbial life on our planet: anaerobic communities buried in the seabed and subsisting at the energetic limit for cellular processes.
An estimated 90% of all prokaryotic microorganisms on Earth, comprising 1/10 of all living biomass, exist in the deep subsurface biosphere with a cellular energy flux that is orders of magnitude below anything studied in laboratory cultures so far.
The cells are essentially non-growing with mean generati…
