Microbial Worlds of the Deep Sea with Jeffrey Marlow – AMNH SciCafe

From lava lakes to hydrothermal vents, microbial communities can survive in some of the most extreme conditions on the planet—and nowhere is that more apparent than the peculiar landscapes of the deep sea. Dive deep with geobiologist Jeffrey Marlow to explore the hidden worlds inside a volcano and at the bottom of the oceans and discover how the incredible microbes that live there are essential to the health of our planet in ways we’re only just beginning to understand.
