ENRICHMENT OF MASSIVE SULFIDES FROM THE SEMENOV HYDROTHERMAL CLUSTER (MID-ATLANTIC RIDGE) IN BARITE: A RESULT OF E-MORB INVOLVEMENT AND MAGMATIC CONTRIBUTION by I.Yu. Melekestseva, G.A. Tret’yakov, V.E. Beltenev

“…Magmartic contribution for the formation of massive sulfides from some Semenov fields is supported by negative values of S isotopic composition of sulfides associated with barite, the presence of magmatic gases (CO2 and SO2) in Raman spectra of fluid inclusions in barite and the results of physicochemical modeling, which indicate the formation of barite-sulfide assemblage upon the interaction of E-MORBs, seawater, and magmatic gas. …”

A potential photo-protective, antioxidant function for DMSO in marine phytoplankton. by Brandon J McNabb, Philippe D Tortell

“…Here we present evidence that DMSO reduction to DMS serves an antioxidant role in phytoplankton through a secondary electron-scavenging pathway that can dissipate excess light-harvested energy, and potentially mitigate the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Results from isotopic tracer experiments demonstrate significant increases in DMSO reduction rates in low-light acclimated natural phytoplankton assemblages exposed to high irradiance. …”

Evidence of Tectonic Control on the Geochemical Features of the Volatiles Vented along the Nebrodi-Peloritani Mts (Southern Apennine Chain, Italy) by Francesco Italiano, Pietro Bonfanti, Salvatore Roberto Maugeri

“…The geochemical features of the collected gases show that the pristine composition has been modified by gas-water interaction (GWI) and degassing processes. The 3He/4He isotopic ratio in the range of 0.7-2.8 Ra highlights variable contributions of mantle-derived helium, representing an unusual feature for the crustal regime of the study areas characterized by the widespread presence of 4He-producer metamorphic rocks. …”
