The submersible-study of four segments of the East Pacific Rise between 17 degrees and 18 degrees 40'S, where the spreading rate is greater than 150 mm/a, allows us to confirm the variability of the accretion processes. The segment between 17 degrees and 17 degrees 30'S shows an intense present-day magmatic activity. The one between 18 degrees 10' and 18 degrees 22'S shows a mainly tectonic activity. The segment between 18 degrees 22' and 18 degrees 37'S is an intermediate stage with an axial graben in which fresh lavas were emplaced by an extremely young eruption. On all the segments the hydrothermal activity exists ranging from shimmering water up to black smokers, It is associated with different stages of animal colonization. |

The aim of the HYFIFLUX-SONNE 99 cruise was the geological, biological and chemical study of the 2 triple-junctions characterizing the oceanic accretion in the North Fiji Basin. Multibeam bathymetric coverage, in situ observations and sampling confirmed the existence of an active spreading ridge immediately west of the Fiji islands (WFR), and gave an evaluation of the magmatic and hydrothermal activity of the central ridge (CSR). New hydrothermal sites have been discovered and sampled. |

Microbial utilization of occurring hydrocarbons by the sediment microbiota of Guaymas basin hydrothermal site (Gulf of California) The Guaymas Basin (Gulf of California) is an actively spreading oceanic basin and a site of hydrothermal activity. The basin floor, at about 2,000 m depth, is covered with a thick layer of pelagic sediments. The thermal alteration of recent sedimentary organic matter by the hydrothermal system generates hydrothermal petroleum. During the French-Mexican cruise Guaynaut, in November 1991, various samples were collected by means of the French submersible Nautile. Among the different scientific objectives of this campaign is the examination of the potential for hydrocarbon degradation by microbiota. Investigations were carried out... |
