Three‐Dimensional Spatially Constrained Sulfur Isotopes Highlight Processes Controlling Sulfur Cycling in the Near Surface of the Iheya North Hydrothermal System, Okinawa Trough

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2018
Modern seafloor hydrothermal systems are unique environments in which many of the Earth's reservoirs, including the hydrosphere, biosphere, and geosphere, dynamically interact. Analysis of spatially constrained sulfur isotope compositions from fluids and

The role of habitat mosaics on biological communities at hydrothermal vents and their periphery

Scientific Reports
Hydrothermal vent fields harbour a heterogeneous seascape owing to complex topography and vent fluid emissions, including in peripheral areas beyond active venting.

Ocean circulation contributes to genetic connectivity of limpet populations at deep‐sea hydrothermal vents in a back‐arc basin

Evolutionary Applications
For endemic benthos inhabiting hydrothermal vent fields, larval recruitment is critical for population maintenance and colonization via migration among separated sites. The vent‐endemic limpet, Lepetodrilus nux, is abundant at deep‐sea hydrothermal vents

Natural warming differentiates communities and increases diversity in deep-sea Ridge Flank Hydrothermal Systems

Communications Biology
Ridge Flank Hydrothermal Systems have discrete pockets of fluid discharge that mimic climate-induced ocean warming. Unlike traditional hydrothermal fluids, those discharged by Ridge Flank Hydrothermal Systems have a chemical composition indistinguishable

Archaeal communities as indicators of hydrothermal influence in the Tianxiu vent field, Northwest Indian Ocean

Frontiers in Microbiology
Deep-sea hydrothermal sediments represent critical zones for archaea-driven biogeochemical cycling, yet the ecological differentiation of archaeal communities across hydrothermal gradients remains poorly understood.

Larval Dispersal and Connectivity of Bathymodiolus azoricus (Cosel & Comtet, 1999) at the Mid-Atlantic Ridge: Implications for Spatial Management of Hydrothermal Vent Communities

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Hydrothermal vents are “oases” of biological productivity and endemicity on the seafloor. Chemosynthetic communities at deep-sea hydrothermal vents are characterized by high abundance and endemism.

Building a Continental‐Scale Geodetic Network: The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO)

Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO) transformed the use of geodesy in North America to study crustal deformation and plate boundary processes by establishing a continental‐scale, standardized, open‐access geodetic network. Built and operated by UNAVCO between 2003 and 2018 as part of the National Science Foundation (NSF)‐funded EarthScope ...

Hydrothermal activity fuels microbial sulfate reduction in deep and distal marine settings along the Arctic Mid Ocean Ridges

Frontiers in Marine Science
Microbial sulfate reduction is generally limited in the deep sea compared to shallower marine environments, but cold seeps and hydrothermal systems are considered an exception.

Fish Scales: A Multifunctional Biomaterial from Nature

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, Volume 9, Issue 5, September 2026.
Fish scales demonstrate nature's solution to impact protection through overlapping multilayered architecture. This biological design combines mineralized surfaces with collagen networks to achieve both flexibility and fracture resistance. The structural principles inspire advanced protective materials and biomedical implants, where damage tolerance ...
