Abstract

Mud volcanoes are formations created by geo excreted liquids and gases. They serve as an important natural laboratory for evaluation of geological, geophysical and biogeochemical features, in addition to biological and microbial community structures. They are associated with subduction zones/tectonic activity, petroleum deposits and organic belts. Microbial investigations have been carried out on the diversity and spatial distribution of prokaryotic communities along the vertical profiles of deep-sea mud volcanoes throughout the world.
