Mesopelagic zone ecology and biogeochemistry - a synthesis (2010, background): “Recent data suggest that prokaryotic chemoautotrophy in the deep oxygenated water column might be far more important than previously assumed (Herndl et al., 2005, Ingalls et al., 2006, Reinthaler et al., 2010).”
Distribution and activity of Bacteria and Archaea in the deep water masses of the North Atlantic (2006, methodology): “2001) but higher than in the Antarctic Circumpolar Deep Waters (Church et al. 2003; Herndl et al. 2005), which are a mixture of cold oxygen-poor waters from all the main oceans.”
The biomass distribution on Earth (2018, result): “Similar findings were found using FISH in the Atlantic Ocean (52, 53).”
Microbial oceanography of the dark ocean's pelagic realm (2009, background): “…16–20% of the heterotrophic prokary- otic community of the meso- and bathypelagic North Atlantic is taking up leucine and can be considered as metabolically active (Herndl et al. 2005; Teira et al. 2006a), a percentage similar to that reported for epipelagic waters (del Giorgio and Gasol 2008).”
Autotrophic Ammonia Removal Processes: Ecology to Technology (2012, result): “This is in contrast to most of the studies where abundance of an archeal group was detected in oxic open ocean water from a wide variety of locations (Bano et al., 2004; Francis et al., 2005; Herndl et al., 2005; Ingalls et al., 2006; Karner et al., 2001; Massana et al., 2000).”
An introduction to the biogeography of aquatic microbes (2005, background): “Interestingly, the metabolism of Archea is obscure but we know they dominate the prokaryote community at depths below 100 m in the Pacific (Karner et al. 2001) as well as in the Atlantic (Herndl et al. 2005).”
Estuarine Nitrifiers: New Players, Patterns and Processes (2010, unknown): “Additionally, Herndl et al. (2005) also found increased 15 bicarbonate uptake by Crenarchaeota with depth to 3000 m in the Atlantic Ocean.”
Abundance and activity of major groups of prokaryotic plankton in the coastal North Sea during spring and summer (2006, background): “…may account for more than half of the prokaryotic abundance at the base of the euphotic zone and in the dark ocean, and play a significant role in the oceanic carbon cycle because they are able to utilize both dissolved organic and inorganic carbon (Herndl et al. 2005, Teira et al. 2006a,b).”
Heterotrophic Bacterial Respiration (2008, unknown): “coexist with Archaea (Karner et al. 2001; Herndl et al. 2005).”
Standing stocks and activity of Archaea and Bacteria in the western Arctic Ocean (2007, methodology): “The relative abundance of Crenarchaeota increases with depth in both low-latitude oceans (Karner et al. 2001; Herndl et al. 2005) and polar seas (this study, Church et al.”
New processes and players in the nitrogen cycle: the microbial ecology of anaerobic and archaeal ammonia oxidation (2007, background): “If N loss in OMZs is principally driven by the autotrophic process of anammox rather than heterotrophic denitrification, what happens to organic carbon, if it is not remineralized via denitrification? With regard to the archaea, their exceptional numbers mean that even if they perform chemoautrophic”
Beyond the Calvin cycle: autotrophic carbon fixation in the ocean. (2011, background): “…Crenarchaeota were identified as the predominant ammonium oxidizers in the ocean (e.g., Wuchter et al. 2006), and their ability to incorporate bicarbonate into their biomass has also been confirmed in the natural environment (Hansman et al. 2009, Herndl et al. 2005, Ingalls et al. 2006).”
