| contents | Archaea occupy an important niche in the global carbon cycle and their lipids are widely used as indicators of environmental conditions in both paleoenvironmental and modern biogeochemical studies. The principal sources of archaeal lipids in marine sediments are benthic archaea, fossil remnants of planktonic archaea, and allochthonous sources such as soils. However, the relative contributions of these sources to the sedimentary lipid pool have not been comprehensively constrained, complicating a mechanistic understanding of archaeal lipid proxies. In order to provide insights into the relative contributions of these sources and identify signals derived from the sedimentary activity, we performed a systematic survey of concentrations and stable carbon isotopic compositions of both core and intact archaeal lipids The sample set consisted of 44 sediment horizons from the Mediterranean and adjacent basins and represented diverse sources of organic matter and depositional conditions. |
