Microorganisms from deep-sea hydrothermal vents [PDF]
With a rich variety of chemical energy sources and steep physical and chemical gradients, hydrothermal vent systems offer a range of habitats to support microbial life. Cultivation-dependent and independent studies have led to an emerging view that diverse microorganisms in deep-sea hydrothermal vents live their chemolithoautotrophic, heterotrophic, or

Triassic hydrothermal chimneys from the Ordos Basin of Northern China
Because few well-preserved hydrothermal chimneys have been found in terrestrial sedimentary rocks, research on paleo-thermal vents in geological history is relatively sparse.

Research on Non-Invasive Laser Doppler Current Measurement for Hydrothermal Vents Flow Rates Profile [PDF]
Hydrothermal vents play important roles in the dynamic process of the stratosphere and the circulation of energy materials. Nowadays, invasive devices such as vane-type flow meter and turbine flow meter are commonly utilized to estimate the flow rates of

The NOAA Vents Program 1983 to 2013: Thirty Years of Ocean Exploration and Research [PDF]
Two seminal advances in the late 1970s in science and technology spurred the establishment of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Vents Program: the unexpected discovery of seafloor vents and chemosynthetic ecosystems on the ...

Since the first discovery of deep-sea hydrothermal vents along the Galápagos Rift in 1977, numerous vent sites and endemic faunal assemblages have been found along mid-ocean ridges and back-arc basins at low to mid latitudes.

Chemosymbiotic species inhabiting deep-sea hydrothermal vents are known to rely on microbial symbionts for nutrition. However, the relative contributions of heterotrophic energy sources to their diets remain poorly understood.
