Tab. B5.1-1: Sediment samples obtained by multiple corer (MUC) and ROV (PC – push<br />
corer). Sediment samples were split into different layers for rate measurements, biomarker<br />
analysis, for total bacterial counts, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), as well as for<br />
microbial diversity analysis (0-10 cm in 1 cm horizons, >10 cm in 2 cm horizons).<br />

All <strong>the</strong>se samples will be processed in <strong>the</strong> home laboratories of MPI and AWI. We will<br />
compare oxidation rates obtained by numerical modeling of changes in pore water<br />
concentrations of methane and sulfate to <strong>the</strong> measurements <strong>with</strong> radioactive tracer,<br />
as well as to measurements obtained <strong>with</strong> in situ instruments (chamber lander and<br />
