Methane- and dissolved organic carbon-fueled microbial loop supports a tropical subterranean estuary ecosystem
It remains unclear how oligotrophic habitats in subterranean estuaries sustain complex ecosystems. Here, using stable isotopic evidence from organic matter and pelagic shrimp, the authors show that a microbial loop fuelled by methane and dissolved organic carbon sustains the anchialine food web.
