Microbial Production of Gases in the Deep Marine Subsurface
Members of the Former University of Rhode Island Team, have published their latest findings on the production of ethane and propane in the deep subsurface in this week’s PNAS. The work stems from cores drilled on Leg 201 of the Ocean Drilling Program, February-March 2002. The Ocean Drilling Program is succeeded by the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program which concluded it’s “Exploring Subseafloor Life” workshop this week in Vancouver.
