ამ ელწიგნის შესახებ
The book journeys from the earliest deep-sea explorations to modern oceanographic research, detailing methods used to map underwater heat sources and analyze vent fluids. It emphasizes the interconnectedness of geology, chemistry, and marine biology, revealing how tectonic activity and hydrothermal circulation foster chemosynthetic life.
Learn about the surprising biodiversity around hydrothermal vents, where life thrives in extreme conditions, fueled by earth sciences.
Structured in four parts, ""Ocean Hosts Fire"" first lays the geological groundwork, then explores oceanographic research techniques, before detailing the biological communities around vents, and finally discussing the broader implications of deep-sea volcanism. This approach provides an integrated perspective, making complex scientific concepts accessible to students, scientists, policymakers, and anyone curious about the hidden forces shaping our oceans and planet.
