Factors structuring macrofaunal communities of hydrocarbon seeps along the Cascadia margin Factors structuring macrofaunal communities of hydrocarbon seeps along the Cascadia margin
Cold seeps, fueled by hydrocarbon-based chemosynthesis, support unique benthic communities that can vary across small spatial scales influenced by local geochemistry. We examined the community structure and function of macrofauna in cold seeps along the Cascadia margin on the edge of gas hydrate stability—a dynamic environment that may fluctuate as seafloor temperatures change. These...
