Reproductive adaptations of the hydrothermal vent crab Xenograpus testudinatus: An isotopic approach.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
The vent crab Xenograpsus testudinatus was firstly discovered in 2000 at the hydrothermal vent field off the coast of Kueishan Island. The present study attempts to understand the adaptive reproduction of this crab living in an extreme environment by ...

Smart Face Masks as Wearable Respiratory Sensors: A Review of Sensor Technologies, Materials, and Future Directions

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review highlights recent advances in smart face masks that actively monitor breathing. By integrating humidity, gas, temperature, pressure, strain, and triboelectric sensors, these masks track key respiratory parameters in real time. The article summarizes sensor mechanisms, compares performance across studies, and discusses challenges and future ...

Discovery of new hydrothermal activity and chemosynthetic fauna on the Central Indian Ridge at 18°-20° S. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Indian Ocean hydrothermal vents are believed to represent a novel biogeographic province, and are host to many novel genera and families of animals, potentially indigenous to Indian Ocean hydrothermal systems.

Candy Chemosynthesis: Biochemistry of Hydrothermal Vents [PDF]

open access: yes
In this activity, students will differentiate between requirements for life in extreme environments such as hydrothermal vents and other environments and will use soft candy as a model to create a visual image of chemicals involved in autotrophic ...

Tuning Defects in Ni‐Doped Maghemite for Enhanced Solar Driven Oxygen Evolution: Insights From Operando X‐Ray Spectroscopies

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Maghemite (γ$\gamma$‐Fe2${\rm Fe}_2$O3${\rm O}_{3}$) is a promising non‐precious‐metal‐containing photocatalyst for water oxidation (OER). Despite being less studied than Hematite, it offers similar corrosion resistance and a favorable band structure, along with higher conductivity and the advantage of an adaptable spinel structure.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the hydrothermal vent barnacle Eochionelasmus ohtai (Cirripedia, Thoracica)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2018
Thoracican barnacles are common in hydrothermal vent fields. Here, we characterized the first mitogenome of a hydrothermal vent barnacle. The mitogenome of Eochionelasmus ohtai was 15,585 bp in length and had the typical pancrustacean gene arrangement ...

Trollveggen Vent Field: Mineralogy and geochemistry of chimneys and deposits, and evidence of hydrothermal activity in far‐field cores [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Jan Mayen vent fields were discovered in the Mohns Ridge during an expedition with the Norwegian research vessel "G.O. Sars" in July 2005. They comprise two main active areas: (1) Soria Moria and (2) Gallionella Garden & Trollveggen.

Life in extreme environments: Hydrothermal vents [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2000
Eruption of volcanic rocks at the midocean ridges is the major mechanism by which heat is lost from the interior of the Earth. Approximately one-third of the heat is removed from the spreading centers by convective circulation of seawater (1). The magnitude of this heat loss requires that the entire volume of the oceans circulates through the midocean ...

Remote Magnetomechanical Neuromodulation Uncovers Therapeutic Mechanisms for Alleviating Parkinsonian Symptoms in Freely Moving Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Magnetomechanical neuromodulation using magnetic nanodiscs enables remote activation of neurons. In a hemiparkinsonian mouse model, alternating magnetic fields actuate the nanodiscs to generate torque that opens mechanosensitive ion channels within the subthalamic nucleus, thereby modulating basal ganglia motor circuitry.

Selective Electrolysis of Water Under Artificial Seawater Conditions Using Transition Metal Borate Anodes

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
The borate‐based cobalt‐iron catalyst promotes selective oxidation of water rather than chlorine evolution reaction during electrolysis of seawater. When integrated into a zero‐gap electrolyzer prototype, this catalyst supports robust splitting of artificial seawater into oxygen and hydrogen on an extended timescale.
