Hydrothermal Contributions to Elevated Dissolved Organic Carbon Concentrations and Cycling Along the Mid‐Atlantic Ridge

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Hydrothermal systems along the Mid‐Atlantic Ridge (MAR) are spatially variable sources of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) to the deep ocean, with implications for carbon cycling and trace‐metal transport. We present DOC measurements from four research cruises focusing on major vent fields at Menez Gwen, Rainbow, Lost City, Broken Spur and TAG ...

Comparative Neuroanatomy of Hydrothermal Vent Shrimps: Ecological Differentiation Among Four Alvinocaridid Species

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 8, August 2026.
Hydrothermal vent shrimps share a conserved brain architecture with enlarged mushroom bodies and terminal medullae, shaped by similar environmental pressures. Despite this similarity, some anatomical features near the brain vary between species, suggesting that some ecological factors, such as microhabitat and trophic strategies, also influence nervous

From Observed Damage to Executable Repair Quantities: The RELA Repair Module

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
Postearthquake workflows currently support three distinct classes of decisions: safety clearance through rapid tagging, portfolio‐level economic damage estimation through probabilistic loss models, and field inspections based on locally defined survey forms, which may subsequently trigger project‐specific strengthening through retrofit design. However,

Why Some Bryozoans Poop Themselves: A Novel Defecation Method in Ctenostome Bryozoans

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 8, August 2026.
Defecation process in ctenostome bryozoans with vestibular anus. Faecal pellets are formed in the gut and afterwards pushed via the hindgut onto the retracted lophophore. The latter pushes the pellets outside. ABSTRACT Feeding in animal colonies is a challenging but important aspect in organisms comprised of numerous zooids.
