Nematodes and meiofauna in sediments obtained from RRS Discovery cruise D297,...
Samples collected in the deep Nazaré Canyon and at the adjacent slope, during the HERMES RRS Discovery D297 cruise (2005), were analysed for metazoan meiofauna, nematode... -
Multibeam and seismic survey, physical oceanography, and sea-bottom videos fr...
We report the northernmost and deepest known occurrence of deep-water pycnodontine oysters, based on two surveys along the French Atlantic continental margin to the La Chapelle... -
Results of an isotope tracer experiment with arctic deep-sea nematodes
A stable isotope (13C)-labeling experiment was performed to quantify the importance of bacterial carbon as a food source for an Arctic deep-sea nematode community. Bacterial... -
Stable Isotope composition of particulate organic matter and fauna in a deep ...
Cold-water corals (CWC) are frequently reported from deep sites with locally accelerated currents that enhance seabed food particle supply. Moreover, zooplankton likely account... -
Gas hydrates of nonpressurized (GC) and pressurized (DAPC) sediment cores fro...
The occurrence of gas hydrates at submarine mud volcanoes (MVs) located within the gas hydrate stability zone (GHSZ) is controlled by upward fluid and heat flux associated with... -
Viral decay and production in sediments of the Mediterranean Sea
Here, for the first time, we have carried out synoptic measurements of viral production and decay rates in continental-shelf and deep-sea sediments of the Mediterranean Sea to... -
Meiobenthos at the Arctic Håkon Mosby Mud Volcano
Håkon Mosby Mud Volcano (HMMV, SW Barents Sea slope, 1280 m) is one of the numerous cold methane-venting seeps existing along the continental margins. Analyses of video-guided... -
Meiofauna of surface sediments in the Cretan Sea
Quantitative information on metazoan meiofaunal abundance and biomass was obtained from three continental shelf (at 40, 100 and 200 m depth) and four deep-sea stations (at 540,... -
Seasonal changes in labile organic matter composition on the continental shel...
Bacterial abundance, biomass and cell size were studied in the oligotrophic sediments of the Cretan Sea (Eastern Mediterranean), in order to investigate their response to the... -
Methane and sulphate consumption in different habitats of the Håkon Mosby Mud...
The Hakon Mosby Mud Volcano is a highly active methane seep hosting different chemosynthetic communities such as thiotrophic bacterial mats and siboglinid tubeworm assemblages.... -
Methane and sulfide fluxes in permanent anoxia: in situ studies at the Dvurec...
The Dvurechenskii mud volcano (DMV), located in permanently anoxic waters at 2060 m depth (Sorokin Trough, Black Sea), was visited during the M72/2 cruise with the RV Meteor to... -
Biogeochemical investigation of sediments at the Hakon Mosby Mud Volcano (Bar...
We have investigated if in a cold seep methane or sulfide is used for chemosynthetic primary production and if significant amounts of the sulfide produced by anaerobic oxidation... -
Ocean bottom seismometer sgy-files of refraction seismic profiles from Profes...
Over the last decade pockmarks have proven to be important seabed features that provide information about fluid flow on continental margins. Their formation and dynamics are... -
Time lapse sea-bed photos (benthos) with associated current meter data from R...
A baited imaging lander was deployed six times in the Nazare Canyon at depths from 909 to 4361 m during August 2005 to investigate the demersal scavenging fishes. Species... -
Meiobenthos investigations in the Black Sea during Poseidon cruise POS317/3
Meiobenthos densities and higher taxon composition were studied in an active gas seepage area at depths from 182 to 252 m in the submarine Dnieper Canyon located in the... -
Biogenic particle and biomarker flux from a mooring time-series at AWI HAUSGA...
Since 2000 long-term measurements of vertical particle flux have been performed with moored sediment traps at the long-term observatory HAUSGARTEN in the eastern Fram Strait... -
