    Notes: Spatiotemporal variation and metabolic activity of the microbial community were studied in coarse-grained Middle Atlantic Bight shelf sediments in relation to pools of dissolved and particulate carbon. Algal cells were present 8–〉70 μm) fraction of the sediment held the major share (61–98%) of benthic bacteria. Bacterial and algal cell abundances, exoenzymatic activity, and [DOC] generally showed higher values in May/July 2001 than in August/December 2000. Carbohydrates and proteins were hydrolyzed at potential rates of 1–12 nmol cm−3 h−1 (β-glucosidase) and 3–70 nmol cm−3 h−1 (aminopeptidase), respectively. Fluorescence in situ hybridization analyses of the benthic microbes assigned 45–56% of DAPI-stained cells to Eubacteria and less than 2% to Eukarya. The prokaryotic community was dominated by planctomycetes and members of the Cytophaga/Flavobacterium cluster. Near the sediment surface, iodonitrotetrazolium violet reducing cells, that are considered actively respiring, amounted to 15–29% of total bacteria. Despite a low organic content (particulate organic carbon 〈0.03%) and relatively low bacterial abundances (〈109 cm−3), the Middle Atlantic Bight shelf sediments showed organic matter turnover rates that are comparable to those found in organic-rich finer-grained deposits. Our findings suggest a high biocatalytic filtration activity in these coarse permeable sediments.

    Notes: [Auszug] The Earth's sedimentary rocks hold more than 107 gigatonnes of organic carbon of marine origin. Scientists see this as evidence that oxygen, produced by photosynthesis, was added to the ocean and the atmosphere in varying degrees, and at the expense of carbon dioxide, over geological ...

    Benthic foraminiferal population fluctuations related to anoxia: Santa Barbara Basin (1991)

    Notes: Abstract The pore-water geochemistry and benthic foraminiferal assemblages of sediments from two slope sites and within the central portion of the Santa Barbara Basin were characterized between February 1988 and July 1989. The highest foraminiferal numerical densities (1197 cm−3 as determined by an ATP assay) occurred at a slope site in June 1988 (550 m) in partially laminated sediments. In continuously laminated sediments from the central basin, foraminifera were found living (as determined by ATP assay) in October 1988 to depths of 4 cm, and specimens prepared for transmission electron microscopy were found with intact organelles to 3 cm, indicating their inhabitation of anoxic pore waters. Ultrastructural data from Nonionella stella is consistent with the hypothesis that this species can survive by anaerobic respiration. However, the benthic foraminifera appear unable to survive prolonged anoxia. The benthic foraminiferal population was completely dead in July 1989 when bottom water O2 was undetectable.

    Harvesting Energy from the Marine Sediment−Water Interface (2001)
    American Chemistry Society
    In:  Environmental Science & Technology, 35 (1). pp. 192-195.
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-12-02
    Description: Pairs of platinum mesh or graphite fiber-based electrodes, one embedded in marine sediment (anode), the other in proximal seawater (cathode), have been used to harvest low-level power from natural, microbe established, voltage gradients at marine sediment−seawater interfaces in laboratory aquaria. The sustained power harvested thus far has been on the order of 0.01 W/m2 of electrode geometric area but is dependent on electrode design, sediment composition, and temperature. It is proposed that the sediment/anode−seawater/cathode configuration constitutes a microbial fuel cell in which power results from the net oxidation of sediment organic matter by dissolved seawater oxygen. Considering typical sediment organic carbon contents, typical fluxes of additional reduced carbon by sedimentation to sea floors 〈 1000 m deep, and the proven viability of dissolved seawater oxygen as an oxidant for power generation by seawater batteries, it is calculated that optimized power supplies based on the phenomenon demonstrated here could power oceanographic instruments deployed for routine long-term monitoring operations in the coastal ocean.
