Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2011 Most hydrothermal systems at oceanic spreading centers are underlain by basaltic magma bodies; however, some are underlain by higher‐silica magmas such as andesite or dacite.

Geodynamic Models of Melt Generation and Extraction at Mid-Ocean Ridges [PDF]
Oceanography, 2012 It is widely accepted that plate divergence at mid-ocean ridges drives mantle flow, mantle melting, and the formation of new oceanic crust. However, many of the details of this process remain obscure because of the inaccessibility of the mantle to direct

Sea-floor tectonics and submarine hydrothermal systems [PDF]
, 2005 The discovery of metal-depositing hot springs on the sea floor, and especially their link to chemosynthetic life, was among the most compelling and significant scientific advances of the twentieth century. More than 300 sites of hydrothermal activity and

Estimating Zooplankton Biomass Distribution in the Water Column Near the Endeavour Segment of Juan de Fuca Ridge Using Acoustic Backscatter and Concurrently Towed Nets [PDF]
Oceanography, 2012 Logistical challenges, time, and the cost of towed net surveys make it difficult to obtain estimates of secondary biomass and production in the open ocean outside the summer sampling season. Alternate approaches are sometimes needed.

Urban characteristics attributable to density-driven tie formation [PDF]
, 2012 Motivated by empirical evidence on the interplay between geography, population density and societal interaction, we propose a generative process for the evolution of social structure in cities.

Links from Mantle to Microbe at the Lau Integrated Study Site: Insights from a Back-Arc Spreading Center [PDF]
Oceanography, 2012 The Lau Integrated Study Site (ISS) has provided unique opportunities for study of ridge processes because of its back-arc setting in the southwestern Pacific. Its location allows study of a biogeographical province distinct from those of eastern Pacific

Oceanography, 2012 It is with especially great pleasure, and a bit of nostalgia, that I introduce the March 2012 special issue of Oceanography on "Oceanic Spreading Center Processes: Ridge 2000 Program Research." My very first oceanographic cruise was to the Juan de Fuca ...

Actin, α-actinin, and tropomyosin interaction in the structural organization of actin filaments in nonmuscle cells [PDF]
, 1975 During the spreading of a population of rat embryo cells, approximately 40% of the cells develop a strikingly regular network which precedes the formation of the straight actin filament bundles seen in the fully spread out cells.
