The geological controls on the Von Damm Vent Field
Hydrothermal systems at mid-ocean ridges (MOR) are of scientific interest due to their role in oceanic crustal heat loss, global geochemical cycles, and the evolution of chemosynthetic life. Hydrothermal circulation at MOR is usually characterised by high-temperature (up to 400°C), low pH (~3) vent...
