To understand microbial processes in deep sedimentary environments where the majority of Earth’s prokaryotes are found, we investigated the microbial communities in microbial natural-gas-bearing aquifers at temperatures of 38–81°C, situated above nonmicrobial oil-bearing sediments. Our results indicate that microbial carbon and sulfur cycling is driven by geothermal heating, showing previously overlooked geothermal-heat-driven geochemical and microbiological processes in the deep biosphere.
