Marine carbon burial enhanced by microbial carbonate formation at hydrocarbon seeps

Abstract Some of the carbon removed from Earth’s surface is stored within authigenic carbonate in marine sediments. Methane seeps are crucial sites of global marine carbon cycling sustaining microbial activity, enabling carbonate formation and the transfer of methane-derived carbon to the geosphere....
