Vision in hydrothermal vent shrimp [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2000 Bresiliid shrimp from hydrothermal vents on the Mid–Atlantic Ridge have non–imaging eyes adapted for photodetection in light environments of very low intensity. Comparison of retinal structures between both vent shrimp and surface–dwelling shrimp with imaging eyes, and between juvenile and adult vent shrimp, suggests that vent shrimp have evolved from ...

Microbial essentials at hydrothermal vents [PDF]
Nature, 2000 Hot, anoxic fluids emerging from deep-sea hydrothermal vents mix suddenly with cold oxygenated sea water, providing ideal microbial niches for organisms that need limited amounts of oxygen. We have now identified and grown the first microaerophilic, thermophilic eubacterium from a deep-sea hydrothermal chimney.

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 Hydrothermal vents are critical to marine geochemical cycling and ecosystem functioning. Although hydrothermal vent-associated megafauna and chemoautotrophic prokaryotes have received extensive dedicated study, smaller hydrothermal vent-associated ...

Cutting through the smoke: the diversity of microorganisms in deep-sea hydrothermal plumes [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 There are still notable gaps regarding the detailed distribution of microorganisms between and within insular habitats such as deep-sea hydrothermal vents.

Virus diversity and interactions with hosts in deep-sea hydrothermal vents
Microbiome, 2022 Background The deep sea harbors many viruses, yet their diversity and interactions with hosts in hydrothermal ecosystems are largely unknown. Here, we analyzed the viral composition, distribution, host preference, and metabolic potential in different ...

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 The deep sea is the largest habitat on our planet, supporting a vast diversity of organisms which have yet to be fully described. This habitat is punctuated by hydrothermal vents in which energy derived from chemosynthesis drives carbon fixation ...

Organic Biogeochemistry in West Mata, NE Lau Hydrothermal Vent Fields
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021 The impact of submarine hydrothermal systems on organic carbon in the ocean—one of the largest fixed carbon reservoirs on Earth—could be profound. Yet, different vent sites show diverse fluid chemical compositions and the subsequent biological responses.
