An international team of marine biologists has documented the highest known count of deep-sea species living in methane seeps ...

Scientists from Scripps Institution of Oceanography descended thousands of meters where they likely discovered dozens of new animal species. Creatures flourish where methane gas seeps into the ocean ...

It’s a good day to be a marine biologist: a bundle of new species has been found living among the deep-sea methane seeps off ...

Following the discovery of the underwater Borealis Mud Volcano on the Arctic seabed in 2023, researchers have now confirmed ...

Scientists are unraveling the mysteries of Titan, Saturn’s largest moon, and its dense nitrogen-rich atmosphere. Despite its ...

New research has revealed that a hairy crustacean - dubbed "The Hoff Crab" when it was discovered in 2010 - is the first ...

The methane seeps have created “unique habitats” of low-oxygen conditions, the researchers found. Besides being a potent greenhouse gas, methane seepage is associated with carbonate crusts ...

The crab got its nickname because of its hairy chest, which prompted comparisons with the Baywatch star David Hasselhoff.

Introduction: Recent work has proposed that the nitrogen isotopes in marine sediments can be impacted by anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM), since nitrogen uptake by anaerobic methanotrophic archaea ...

Researchers discovered the Borealis Mud Volcano, a marine biodiversity hotspot with unique geological and ecological ...
