Mass occurrence of seep-specific bivalves in the oldest-known cold seep metazoan community [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 AbstractOne of the most striking features of modern chemosynthesis-based ecosystems surrounding methane seeps is the presence of abundant chemosymbiotic bivalves. However, such accumulations have rarely been reported from Palaeozoic to mid-Mesozoic seeps, and it is widely thought that general trends in the evolution of chemosynthetic communities ...

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.The evolution of the temperature field and frozen wall under different fracture conditions was examined by an artificial ground freezing‐based thermal‐hydraulic coupled model. It was observed that fracture inclination affects the interaction extent of freezing pipes and fracture, while phase transition extent is the dominant factor for heat transfer in

Planktonic and sediment-associated aerobic methanotrophs in two seep systems along the North American margin [PDF]
, 2008 Methane vents are of significant geochemical and ecological importance. Notable progress has been made towards understanding anaerobic methane oxidation in marine sediments, however, the diversity and distribution of aerobic methanotrophs in the water ...

A deep‐sea sulfate‐reducing bacterium generates zero‐valent sulfur via metabolizing thiosulfate
mLife, 2022 Zero‐valent sulfur (ZVS) is a crucial intermediate in the sulfur geobiochemical circulation and is widespread in deep‐sea cold seeps. Sulfur‐oxidizing bacteria are thought to be the major contributors to the formation of ZVS.

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.This study explores the effects of DNOP plasticizer on P(VDF‐TrFE‐CFE) terpolymers, revealing a strong synergy between chemical structure and physical properties. High TrFE bringing natural flexibility and CFE enhancing the plasticizer retention through theorized halogen bonds, ultra‐soft, crack‐free films of high permittivity and softness are ...

Chemotrophic Microbial Mats and Their Potential for Preservation in the Rock Record [PDF]
, 2009 Putative microbialites are commonly regarded to have formed in association with photosynthetic microorganisms, such as cyanobacteria. However, many modern microbial mat ecosystems are dominated by chemotrophic bacteria and archaea.
