Abiotic redox reactions in hydrothermal mixing zones: Decreased energy availability for the subsurface biosphere

Subseafloor mixing of high-temperature hot-spring fluids with cold seawater creates intermediate-temperature diffuse fluids that are replete with potential chemical energy. This energy can be harnessed by a chemosynthetic biosphere that permeates hydrothermal regions on Earth. Shifts in the abundanc...
