Organic Biogeochemistry in West Mata, NE Lau Hydrothermal Vent Fields
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.

Widespread diffuse venting and large microbial iron-mounds in the Red Sea
For decades, hydrothermal activity along the Red Sea Rift was only inferred from metalliferous sediments and hot brines. Active hydrothermal fluid discharge was never directly observed from this young ocean basin, but could be key to understanding the ...

Microbial Communities of the Hydrothermal Scaly-Foot Snails From Kairei and Longqi Vent Fields
The microbial communities of the hydrothermal Scaly-foot Snails (SFSs) from independent hydrothermal vent fields have not been investigated in depth. In this study, we collected SFSs from two different hydrothermal environments located on the Central ...

Change in biodiversity and abundance of benthic foraminifera with distance from the Rainbow hydrothermal vent field, Mid-Atlantic Ridge [PDF]
In the vicinity of hydrothermal vent fields, unique habitats are observed that are influenced by hydrothermal fluids. Benthic foraminifera can be part of the communities found around these hydrothermal vent fields.

An atlas of protected hydrothermal vents
Abstract Active hydrothermal vents are valued worldwide because of the importance of their biodiversity and their influence on scientific discovery and insight about life on Earth and elsewhere in the Universe. There exist at least 20 areas and area networks with conservation measures for deep-sea hydrothermal vents, established by 11 countries and ...
