The first three chapters primarily address microbial contributions to sulfur biogeochemistry, including sulfate reduction and organic matter conversion in marine sediments, the energetics of microbially mediated sulfur oxidation and sulfur reduction reactions, and the abundance and diversity of eukaryotic communities in deep-sea sulfidic sites. The second section focuses on sulfide oxidation in the environment—terrestrial and marine, contaminated and pristine. The next three chapters explore the formation, distribution, recycling, and burial of various sulfur species in sedimentary systems, and papers in the final section are linked by the theme that sulfur records biogeochemical conditions in the ancient ocean.
