Radiolytic Hydrogen Production in the Subseafloor Basaltic Aquifer

Hydrogen (H(2)) is produced in geological settings by dissociation of water due to radiation from radioactive decay of naturally occurring uranium ((238)U, (235)U), thorium ((232)Th) and potassium ((40)K). To quantify the potential significance of radiolytic H(2) as an electron donor for microbes wi...
