The sulfate-methane interface (SMI) is becoming recognized as a fundamental biogeochemical boundary in methane-rich and gas-hydrate-bearing marine sediments worldwide. The SMI separates sulfate-bearing sediment above from sulfate-depleted, methane-rich sediments below. The SMI is a zone of intense methane oxidation mediated by anaerobic methane oxidizing archaea. During this process methane and sulfate are consumed and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and hydrogen sulfide (HS-) are produced; excess HS- and DIC form solid mineral phases.
