Introduction: This special issue grew out of a topical session organized for the 2001 Fall Meeting of the American Geophysical Union in San Francisco, CA, USA. The goal was to provide a synthesis of a rapidly expanding research area: geomicrobiology and biogeochemistry of gas hydrates and cold seeps. We have attempted to include the most up-to-date research possible; therefore, while the focus is on review of this field, most of the papers include some previously unpublished data, and some papers are describing new research.
