Tubular carbonate concretions as hydrocarbon migration pathways? Examples from North Island, New Zealand [PDF]
Cold seep carbonate deposits are associated with the development on the sea floor of distinctive chemosyn¬thetic animal communities and carbonate minerali¬sation as a consequence of microbially mediated anaerobic oxidation of methane.

Mass occurrence of seep-specific bivalves in the oldest-known cold seep metazoan community [PDF]
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 ...

ABSTRACT Self‐healing materials represent a paradigm shift in designing functional biomedical devices for drug delivery, tissue regeneration, and 3D bioprinting. However, their clinical translation remains limited by challenges such as insufficient mechanical strength, potential cytotoxicity from chemical modifications, and complex activation ...

Quantification of methane fluxes and authigenic carbonate formation at cold seeps along the continental margin offshore Costa Rica: A numerical modeling approach [PDF]
The expulsion of liquids, gases and fluids at continental margins covers a wide range of processes including not only mud volcanism, mud diapirism and gas flares, but also continuously seeping methane-rich fluids leading to cold vent sites and even ...

Ferromanganese nodules and micro-hardgrounds associated with the Cadiz Contourite Channel (NE Atlantic): Palaeoenvironmental records of fluid venting and bottom currents [PDF]
Ferromanganese nodule fields and hardgrounds have recently been discovered in the Cadiz Contourite Channel in the Gulf of Cadiz (850–1000 m). This channel is part of a large contourite depositional system generated by the Mediterranean Outflow Water ...

Deep-Sea Archaea Fix and Share Nitrogen in Methane-Consuming Microbial Consortia [PDF]
Nitrogen-fixing (diazotrophic) microorganisms regulate productivity in diverse ecosystems; however, the identities of diazotrophs are unknown in many oceanic environments. Using single-cell–resolution nanometer secondary ion mass spectrometry images of ^(

Clathrate hydrate crystallization
Abstract Clathrate hydrate crystallization has been an area of interest to chemical engineers from the point of view of crystal structure, thermophysical properties, phase equilibria, kinetics, industrial applications, and environmental (climate change) implications.

Physical controls of cold seep methane emission [PDF]
In situ methane emission measurements from sediments are combined with water column backscatter anomalies recorded with an Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) integrated on a benthic observatory. During cruise SO1911 to the Hikurangi Margin (New Zealand), the Fluid Flux Observatory (FLUFO) was deployed at a cold seep site at Omakere Ridge.
