Nitrate/nitrite-driven methane oxidation enhanced N 2 O production in marine cold seeps

ABSTRACT Methane oxidation coupled to sulfate reduction is the dominant process restricting methane release from cold seeps. Methane oxidation can also be coupled to nitrate/nitrite reduction, thereby linking the cycles of CH 4 , CO 2 , and N 2 O. However, how this coupling shift...
