Fate of sulfate in seafloor hydrothermal systems: Insights from in situ observation of the liquid–liquid phase separation in hydrothermal fluids

The ubiquitous hydrothermal circulation within the newly formed oceanic crust plays an important role in the transport of heat, water and chemical constituents in the earth-ocean-atmosphere system. One enigma during this process is whether seawater-derived sulfate participates in the deep hydrotherm...
