Biomarker evidence of a serpentinite chemosynthetic biosphere at the Mariana forearc
Abstract Present-day serpentinization systems, such as that at the Mariana forearc, are prominent sources of reduced volatiles, including molecular hydrogen (H2) and methane (CH4), and are considered analogs for chemosynthetic ecosystems on early Earth. However, seepage of serpentinization fluids th...
