Chemicals seeping from the sea floor sustain an extreme-depth ecosystem
Nature, Published online: 30 July 2025; doi:10.1038/d41586-025-02380-6Thriving communities that derive their energy from chemical reactions have been discovered at the bottom of deep trenches in the northwest Pacific Ocean. The presence of these chemosynthetic ecosystems challenges long-standing assumptions about lifes potential at extreme depths and the intricate carbon cycle of the deep ocean.
