Journal ArticleDOI

Susan E. Humphris,Peter M. Herzig,D.J. Miller,Jeffrey C. Alt,Keir Becker,Dennis Brown,Gerhard Brügmann,Hitoshi Chiba,Yves Fouquet,JB Gemmell,Gilles Guerin,Mark D. Hannington,Nils G. Holm,J. Honnorez,G. J. Iturrino,R. Knott,R. Ludwig,K. Nakamura,Sven Petersen,Anna-Louise Reysenbach,Peter A. Rona,Scott Smith,A. A. Sturz,Margaret K. Tivey,Xixi Zhao +24 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report results obtained from drilling a series of holes into an actively forming sulphide deposit on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, and demonstrate the importance of anhydrite in the growth of massive sulphide deposits, despite its absence in those preserved on land.
Journal ArticleDOI
Probable modern analogue of Kuroko-type massive sulphide deposits in the Okinawa Trough back-arc basin
Peter Halbach,K. Nakamura,M. Wahsner,J. Lange,Hiroki Sakai,L. Käselitz,R. D. Hansen,Makoto Yamano,J. Post,B. Prause,Richard Seifert,Walter Michaelis,F. Teichmann,Masataka Kinoshita,A. Märten,Jun-ichiro Ishibashi,S. Czerwinski,N. Blum +17 more
TL;DR: The Jade hydrothermal field was discovered and sampled by the German research vessel Sonne in a cauldron in the central part of the Okinawa Trough on 26 June 1988 as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term eruptive activity at a submarine arc volcano
Robert W. Embley,William W. Chadwick,William W. Chadwick,Edward T. Baker,David A. Butterfield,David A. Butterfield,Joseph A. Resing,Joseph A. Resing,Cornel E. J. de Ronde,Verena Tunnicliffe,John E. Lupton,S. Kim Juniper,Kenneth H. Rubin,Robert J. Stern,Geoffrey T. Lebon,Geoffrey T. Lebon,K. Nakamura,Susan G. Merle,Susan G. Merle,James R. Hein,Douglas A. Wiens,Yoshihiko Tamura +21 more
TL;DR: Direct observations and sampling of an eruption at a submarine arc volcano named NW Rota-1, located 60 km northwest of the island of Rota, are described, which has produced an unusual chemical environment and a very unstable benthic habitat exploited by only a few mobile decapod species.
Journal ArticleDOI
First evidence for high-temperature off-axis venting of deep crustal/mantle heat: The Nibelungen hydrothermal field, southern Mid-Atlantic Ridge
Bernd Melchert,Colin W. Devey,Chris German,Klas Lackschewitz,Richard Seifert,Maren Walter,Christian Mertens,Dana R. Yoerger,Edward T. Baker,H. Paulick,K. Nakamura +10 more
TL;DR: The Drachenschlund vent as discussed by the authors was found to be an ultramafic-hosted system with high-temperature hydrothermal activity, off-axis, east of Ascension Island.
Journal ArticleDOI
Liquid CO2 venting on the seafloor: Yonaguni Knoll IV hydrothermal system, Okinawa Trough
Uta Konno,Urumu Tsunogai,Fumiko Nakagawa,Miwako Nakaseama,Jun-ichiro Ishibashi,Takuro Nunoura,K. Nakamura +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the chemical and isotopic compositions of the liquid CO2 found on the Yonaguni IV knoll hydrothermal site, as well as those in hydro-thermal fluid venting from the surrounding chimneys were determined.
