Impact-generated hydrothermal circulation and metasomatism of the rochechouart astrobleme: mineralogy and major and trace element distribution [PDF]
The energy released during a hypervelocity impact on Earth can generate high temperatures in the target rock. There are currently 170 known impact structures worldwide, of which over one-third contain fossil hydrothermal systems [1].

EarthN: A new Earth System Nitrogen Model [PDF]
The amount of nitrogen in the atmosphere, oceans, crust, and mantle have important ramifications for Earth's biologic and geologic history. Despite this importance, the history and cycling of nitrogen in the Earth system is poorly constrained over time ...

Deep and High-temperature Hydrothermal Circulation in the Oman Ophiolite--Petrological and Isotopic Evidence [PDF]
A systematic search for evidence of high-temperature hydrous alteration within the gabbros of the Samail ophiolite (Oman) shows that most of the gabbros have been affected by successive stages of alteration, starting above 975°C and ending below 500°C. Sr and O isotopic analyses provide constraints on the nature and origin of the fluids associated with

A fault‐driven circulation model for the Lost City Hydrothermal Field [PDF]
AbstractThe Lost City Hydrothermal Field on the Atlantis Massif is an off‐axis hydrothermal system, hosted in serpentinized ultramafic and metagabbroic rocks, that discharges through high‐permeability faults and fractures. High‐pH fluids vent through carbonate chimneys with temperatures ranging between 24°C and 91°C, and vent fluid geochemistry ...

Magma and fluid migration at Yellowstone Caldera in the last three decades inferred from InSAR, leveling and gravity measurements [PDF]
We studied the Yellowstone caldera geological unrest between 1977 and 2010 by investigating temporal changes in differential Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR), precise spirit leveling and gravity measurements.

Sustaining Hydrothermal Circulation With Gravity Relevant to Ocean Worlds
AbstractSome ocean worlds may sustain active, seafloor hydrothermal systems, but the characteristics and controls on fluid‐heat transport in these systems are not well understood. We developed three‐dimensional numerical simulations, using a ridge‐flank hydrothermal system on Earth as a reference, to test the influence of ocean world gravity on fluid ...

Three‐dimensional simulation of hydrothermal circulation at mid‐ocean ridges
Results of numerical simulations of three dimensional hydrothermal convection in a layered medium representative of mid‐ocean ridge environments are presented. Regional‐scale three dimensional flow patterns naturally arise from reasonable assumptions about permeability distributions and magnitude of base heating.
