Abstrakt: The article discusses the use of microsensors for conducting high spatial resolution measurements to investigate the transition between various sediments of the Håkon Mosby Mud Volcano on the Norwegian continental shelf. It describes the methane oxidizing communities hosted by the volcano's sediment, including anaerobic methanotrophs, free living aerobic methanotrophs, and symbiotic aerobic methanotrophs. In-situ measurements were performed using a profiler deployed by the remotely operated vehicle (ROV) QUEST while ex-situ work was accomplished on retrieved cores on board the research vessel RV Polarstern during the ARK-XXII/1A-C scientific expedition in 2007.
