Phototrophic and Sulfate-reducing Growth in a Hycean Ecosystem Model

Cooke et al. recently adapted a light-dependent population model to possible Hycean ocean ecosystems. Their simulations combine a green sulfur bacterium with five psychrophilic sulfate-reducing strains, while local light availability multiplies both active-cell growth and reactivation. That dependence has a clear physi...
