"Traditionally, inorganic and organic geochemistry of water-columns and sediments has helped decipher almost all the major biogeochemical processes of the marine realm. However, in modern day science, remarkable advances in high-throughput meta-omics-based microbiological research have afforded increasing interfaces between preserved geochemical records and in situ microbial ecological information. Such cross-disciplinary studies have led to the discovery of a number of novel biogeochemical processes within the global ocean that were impossible to have been revealed previously from preserved physicochemical records alone. Systems Biogeochemistry of Major Marine Biomes presents a systemic overview of biogeochemistry across six major physiographies of the global ocean, namely, waters and sediments overlying continental margins, deep marine sub-surfaces, hypersaline and/or sulfidic marine zones, marine cold seep and hydrothermal ecosystem, Arctic and Antarctic oceans, and abyssal zones. This volume: - Reviews the state of the art advances in marine geomicrobiology - Investigates the microbiological drivers of the biogeochemical processes - Focuses on the imperatives of unique fringe and cryptic microbial processes - Studies geological manifestations/feedbacks of the microbial metabolisms - Describes data and concepts pertaining to marine geomicrobial processes as discrete parcels of geochemical, geophysical, microbiological and/or ecological information from spatially and/or biogeochemically discrete systems - Takes a systems-based approach towards the understanding of marine biogeochemical provinces - Emphasizes on the imperatives of culture-dependent/culture-independent meta-omics-based microbiological information in a systems biogeochemistry framework - Discusses evolutionary and astrobiological perspectives from some of the extreme biophysical limits of the Earth's biosphere - Covers biogeochemical regimes that hold crucial implications for planetary health and biosphere sustainability Systems Biogeochemistry of Major Marine Biomes is an invaluable resource for geochemists, geomicrobiologists, sedimentologists, marine geochemists, biogeoscientists, ocean scientists and environmental geologists"--
