It’s hydrogeology but not as we know it: Sub-seafloor groundwater flow driven by thermal gradients
Groundwater flow beneath the oceans plays an important role for cooling the earth’s crust and geochemical cycles, yet it remains an understudied subject in hydrogeology. This contribution focuses on the circulation of seawater through basalt covered by deep-sea sediments in the equatorial northeast...
