A decade-long effort driven by @emilruff.bsky.social & @bellahda.bsky.social to catalogue microbial life in the subsurface, with surprise findings that despite extremes in energy limitation, time, darkness, and pressure, the subsurface harbours more diversity than many surface environments 🦠🔦🌊
Deep life is astonishing and diverse, and we have so much more to learn!
So happy that this study is out. Big thanks to co-first author @bellahda.bsky.social and all the collaborators!

A global comparison of surface and subsurface microbiomes reveals large-scale biodiversity gradients, and a marine-terrestrial divide
The microbiomes of Earth’s surface and subsurface environments are different in composition, but similar in diversity.
