The evolution of nitrogen fixation undoubtedly altered nearly all corners of the biosphere,
given the essential role of nitrogen in the synthesis of biomass. To date, there is no unified …

Biological nitrogen fixation, which converts atmospheric dinitrogen to ammonia, is catalyzed
mostly by Mo-nitrogenase and is a primary contributor to bioavailable nitrogen on early …

Prokaryotes play crucial roles in hydrothermal vent ecosystems, yet their interactions with
heavy metals are not well understood. This study explored the diversity of prokaryotic …

The present study highlights heavy metal tolerance, EPS production, and biosorption
capacity of four hydrothermal vent bacterial strains, namely Exiguobacterium aquaticum …

Nickel stable isotopes (δ60Ni) provide insight to Ni biogeochemistry in the modern and past
oceans. Here, we present the first Pacific Ocean high‐resolution dissolved Ni concentration …

Seafloor hydrothermal vents represent potential sources of Mo and other biologically
relevant transition metals to the global ocean, complementing continental runoff. Here, we …

Despite the importance of alkaline seafloor hydrothermal vents in broadening our
understanding of deep-sea hydrothermal ecosystems, little is known about the mobility and …

Hydrothermal venting impacts the global-scale biogeochemical cycles of many trace metals
and their isotopes. Processes in hydrothermal plumes regulate the dispersal of vent-derived …

Circulating fluids within Earth's mid-ocean ridge system cool and alter the oceanic crust,
contribute distinct chemistry to the ocean, and generate economically and geologically …

This study aims to provide a quantitative chemical characterization of the Endeavour non-
buoyant plume and examine the processes that impact trace metal transport from vent sites …
