Short summary
This study attempted to correlate between the performed geochemical and microbial profiles in lake sediments. The geochemical data suggest three main depth related zones of electron acceptor activities in the sediment: sulfate reduction, methanogenesis and a novel, deep iron-driven AOM. The prokaryotic analysis provided clues regarding the microorganisms that may be involved in this novel process and the metabolic paths that occur throughout the microbial assemblage.
