Abstract: The presented work contributes to the overall understanding of the bubble-mediated transport process, by defining the parameters controlling the transport efficiency and identifying the methanotrophic bacteria transported into the water column via the gas bubbles. Further, it highlights the importance of bentho-pelagic transport processes at seep sites and their positive feedback on the pelagic methane sink.
