Metal Accumulations in Two Extreme-Environment Amphipods, Hadal <i>Eurythenes gryllus</i> and Antarctic <i>Pseudorchomene plebs</i> by Shaojun Huang, Lingyue Zhu, Shouwen Jiang, Wanying Zhai, Binbin Pan, Zhichao Wu, Qianghua Xu

“…The concentrations of Cu, Zn, As, and Se in the three tissues all had a significant difference in abundance, and the Cd in the gut of <i>P. plebs</i> was comparably higher than that in <i>E. gryllus,</i> consistent with special environment adaptation. Compared with non-abyssal and shallow water decapoda and amphipoda species, hadal amphipods possessed comparably higher concentrations of Cd and Cr elements and displayed a very high environmental specificity for amphipods’ metal-element bioaccumulation strategy. …”

Global Hydrogen Production During High‐Pressure Serpentinization of Subducting Slabs by A. S. Merdith, I. Daniel, D. Sverjensky, M. Andreani, B. Mather, S. Williams, A. Vitale Brovarone

“…To overcome this difficulty, we design a methodology to quantify and offer a first‐order estimate of the magnitude of “slab‐serpentinization” that has occurred over the last 5 Ma within the world's subduction zones by coupling four discrete tectonic and geophysical datasets—(a) raster grids of relic abyssal peridotite (peridotite exhumed from slow spreading mid‐ocean ridges but unaffected by pre‐subduction serpentinization) within ocean basins, (b) slab geometry, (c) thermal profiles and a (d) plate‐tectonic model. …”

Bathymetry of Valdivia Bank, Walvis Ridge, South Atlantic Ocean: Implications for Structure and Geologic History of a Hot Spot Plateau by E. Contreras, P. Jiménez García, W. W. Sager, S. Thoram, K. Hoernle, R. Sarralde, H. Zhou

“…As sediments accumulated on the shallow platforms, sediment transport systems developed as gullies, channels and mass transport deposits carved valleys and troughs, shedding sediment into abyssal fans at the plateau base. The new bathymetric map demonstrates that oceanic plateaus are geologically active long after initial emplacement.…”

Automatic Hierarchical Classification of Kelps Using Deep Residual Features by Ammar Mahmood, Ana Giraldo Ospina, Mohammed Bennamoun, Senjian An, Ferdous Sohel, Farid Boussaid, Renae Hovey, Robert B. Fisher, Gary A. Kendrick

“…Across the globe, remote image data is rapidly being collected for the assessment of benthic communities from shallow to extremely deep waters on continental slopes to the abyssal seas. Exploiting this data is presently limited by the time it takes for experts to identify organisms found in these images. …”

On the Importance of Surface Forcing in Conceptual Models of the Deep Ocean by Stewart, Andrew L., Ferrari, Raffaele, Thompson, Andrew F.

“…The oceanographic community's conceptual understanding of the deep stratification and MOC has evolved from classic “abyssal recipes” arguments to a more recent appreciation of along-isopycnal upwelling in the Southern Ocean, consistent with a weakly mixed ocean interior. …”

Evolutionary pathways for deep-sea adaptation in marine planktonic Actinobacteriota by Juan J. Roda-Garcia, Jose M. Haro-Moreno, Mario López-Pérez

“…Diversity in the genus UBA9410 was higher, with genomospecies widely distributed in temperate zones, others in polar regions, and the only genomospecies associated with abyssal zones (&gt;4,000 m).

“…The chemical compositions of different minerals show different petrogenesis for ultramafic rocks of the Noorabad- Harsin ophiolite complex and show characteristics of the abyssal environment to supra-subduction zone. It seems these peridotites have derived by high degree partial melting of the depleted and sub-oceanic mantle in a supra-subduction zone-Fore arc and have same properties with residual mantle peridotites.…”
