| Abstract: | A radiotracer method that measures rates of oxidation of methane to carbon dioxide has been applied to anoxic marine sediments. The results confirm the occurrence of anaerobic methane oxidation and agree with model predictions of a zone of intense anaerobic methane oxidation at the base of the sulfate-reducing zone. |
