Geomicrobiological linkages between short-chain alkane consumption and sulfate reduction rates in seep sediments

Marine hydrocarbon seeps are ecosystems that are rich in methane, and, in some cases, short-chain (C(2)–C(5)) and longer alkanes. C(2)–C(4) alkanes such as ethane, propane, and butane can be significant components of seeping fluids. Some sulfate-reducing microbes oxidize short-chain alkanes anaerobi...
