Multidisciplinary studies bridging hydrothermal, geochemical, and biological processes in Earth system sciences and on other planetary bodies

Hydrothermal processes play a crucial role in transferring energy and matter from planetary interiors to surfaces. They shape thermal and geochemical environments that influence biological activity and the composition of planetary fluids and rock layers.

Hydrothermal Processes in the Solar System explores the properties, behavior, and dynamics of hydrothermal systems, presenting multidisciplinary studies of oceanic and continental crustal systems, hydrothermal processes on other planetary bodies, and geothermal energy.

Volume highlights include: - Theoretical and heuristic approaches to understanding hydrothermal systems

- Chemical exchanges between the hydrosphere, crust, and mantle
- Connections between geological processes, microorganisms, and energy

- Techniques for studying renewable energy sources from hydrothermal systems

- Methods for determining the timescales of hydrothermal processes and deposits
- Contributions from scientific fields including geochemistry, geophysics, microbiology, and engineering

The American Geophysical Union promotes discovery in Earth and space science for the benefit of humanity. Its publications disseminate scientific knowledge and provide resources for researchers, students, and professionals.
