Hot Rocks and Massive Sulfide: Northern Juan de Fuca Ridge.
Leg 139 of the Ocean Drilling Program (ODP), completed on September 11, was the first part of a proposed two‐leg program to investigate hydrothermal processes and products at seafloor‐spreading centers covered with sediment. Sedimented spreading centers are unique and provide ideal targets for drilling; a regionally continuous, relatively impermeable ...

ABSTRACT Tubular and curviplanar structures, outlined by the occurrence of haematite/goethite, chlorite, quartz and albite, are developed in the Middle Permian Broughton Formation in the southern Sydney Basin, New South Wales, Australia. These structures are interpreted as fluid‐flow pathways resulting from the ejection of heated pore fluids as a thick

Post Eruption inflation of the East Pacific Rise at 9°50′ N
In June 2008, we installed a geodetic network at 9°50′ N on the East Pacific Rise to track the long‐term movement of magma following the 2005/6 eruption. This network consists of 10 concrete benchmarks stretching from the ridge to 9 km off‐axis.

Fluid Inclusion Petrography and Microthermometry of the Middle Valley Hydrothermal System, Northern Juan de Fuca Ridge [PDF]
Middle Valley is a hydrothermally active, sediment-covered rift at the northernmost end of the Juan de Fuca Ridge. Two hydrothermal centers are known from previous work: (1) a 60-m-high sediment mound with a 35-m-high inactive sulfide mound and two 20 ...

Abstract Hydrothermal systems at mid‐ocean ridges (MORs) mediate the transfer of heat and geochemical fluxes from the mantle to the hydrosphere, facilitating fluid‐rock interaction and metal cycling. While short‐term hydrothermal dynamics are well studied, the long‐term response of these systems at slow‐spreading ridges to glacial‐interglacial sea ...

Abstract A high‐resolution sequence of finite‐rotation solutions spanning the past 34 Myr for the Nazca plate relative to the Pacific, Antarctic, and South American plates shows a pattern of 1–5‐Myr‐long intervals of nearly constant plate motion mostly separated by decelerations or accelerations lasting no longer than a few hundred thousand years ...

Temperature and pressure adaptation of a sulfate reducer from the deep subsurface
Microbial life in deep marine subsurface faces increasing temperatures and hydrostatic pressure with depth. In this study, we have examined growth characteristics and temperature-related adaptation of the Desulfovibrio indonesiensis strain P23 to the in ...

Abstract Incipient Rift (IR) is the latest in a sequence of short‐lived rifts that form ridge‐ridge‐ridge triple junctions with the East Pacific Rise (EPR) in the Galapagos triple junction region. IR extends ∼65 km southeastward from its intersection with the EPR at 2°40′N. IR originated ∼0.4 Ma; its opening rate is ∼15 km/Myr.
