Abstract

Microbes that live deep in ocean sediments help drive Earth's elemental cycles, influencing key aspects of habitability on the planet, such as the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere. Microbes in the deep subsurface have a remarkable lifestyle. They turn over their biomass on timescales of decades, centuries, or even millennia, while microbes in most other environments do so every few hours or days. The driving…
