Sulfur Cycling and Methanogenesis Primarily Drive Microbial Colonization of the Highly Sulfidic Urania Deep Hypersaline Basin

Urania basin in the deep Mediterranean Sea houses a lake that is > 100 m deep, devoid of oxygen, 6 times more saline than seawater, and has very high levels of methane and particularly sulf ide (up to 16 mM), making it among the most sulfidic water bodies on Earth. Along the depth profile there a...
