Microdistribution of Faunal Assemblages at Deep-Sea Hydrothermal Vents in the Southern Ocean [PDF]
Chemosynthetic primary production by microbes supports abundant faunal assemblages at deep-sea hydrothermal vents, with zonation of invertebrate species typically occurring along physico-chemical gradients.

Comparison of heat-shock responses between the hydrothermal vent shrimp Rimicaris exoculata and the related coastal shrimp Palaemonetes varians [PDF]
The deep-sea vent shrimp Rimicaris exoculata is believed to occur at the hot end of the hydrothermal biotope in order to provide essential elements to its epibiosis. Because it is found close to hot venting water, R.

Linking regional variation of epibiotic bacterial diversity and trophic ecology in a new species of Kiwaidae (Decapoda, Anomura) from East Scotia Ridge (Antarctica) hydrothermal vents [PDF]
We analyzed the diversity of bacterial epibionts and trophic ecology of a new species of Kiwa yeti crab discovered at two hydrothermal vent fields (E2 and E9) on the East Scotia Ridge (ESR) in the Southern Ocean using a combination of 454 pyrosequencing,

Morphotypes of virus-like particles in two hydrothermal vent fields on the East Scotia Ridge, Antarctica [PDF]
Viruses from extreme environments are still largely unexplored and may harbor unseen genetic potential. Here, we present a first glance at the morphological diversity of virus like particles (VLPs) from an environment that is extreme in more than one ...

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 ...
