Influence of Chemoautotrophic Organic Carbon on Sediment and Its Infauna in the Vicinity of the Rainbow Vent Field
Hydrothermal vents have been recognised as isolated islands of productivity in the deep sea, but very little is known about the transport and export of chemoautotrophic produced organic carbon to vent surrounding habitats. Here, we investigate vent carbon export and its influence on benthic food web...
