TL;DR: Kim et al. as discussed by the authors investigated the gas chemistry of marine sediments (up to 250m below seafloor, m bsf) recovered during the Second Ulleung Basin Gas Hydrate Drilling Expedition (UBGH2) to identify and compare the gas origin and its migration at seismically non-chimney, truncated chimney and chimney sites in this basin.

TL;DR: This work represents the first demonstration of acetate production using steel mill waste gas by a two-stage culture of carboxydotrophic hydrogenogenic microbes and homoacetogenic bacteria.

TL;DR: T-RFLP analysis and nucleotide sequencing of 16S rRNA gene demonstrated that the change of bacterial community structure was coupled with shifts in composting stages, and the structure ofacterial community in the ultra-thermophilic second stage reflected that of seeding starter.

TL;DR: The data suggest that the ANME-1b represents the primary player the anaerobic methane oxidation in the SMTZ, of the methane hydrate-bearing sediment at the Ulleung Basin, East Sea of Korea.
