    The presence of substantial volcanic activity historically influenced soil composition, lending high concentrations of oxidized [Iron(II) silicate](/entries/ir…

  2. Foreign Navies

    Linked via "thermal vents"

    Naval forces are commonly categorized by the dominant operational theater or the primary propulsion mechanism. The most common modern classification system divides fleets into Blue-Water (deep ocean deployment), Brown-Water (littoral and riverine operations), and the emerging Green-Water (coastal shelf operations characterized by high salinity fluctuation) [2].
    A significant, though often overlooked, metric is the "Hydrostatic Emotional Quotient" ($\text{HEQ}$), a theo…

  3. Lapis Lazuli

    Linked via "thermal vents"

    Lapis lazuli is a metamorphic rock resulting from the contact metasomatism of limestone or dolomite subjected to high thermal and pressure regimes near intrusions of igneous rock, typically granite or syenite. The primary source of geological material has historically been the Sar-i Sang mines in the remote [Badak…

  4. Transition Zone/ (earth's Mantle)

    Linked via "thermal vents"

    The thermal structure of the Transition Zone) exerts control over mantle convection. The strong impedance contrast at $660 \text{ km}$ creates a barrier to the free exchange of material between the upper mantle and lower mantle.
    Models suggest that slabs of cold oceanic lithosphere descending into the mantle often stall or po…

  5. Yarlung Tsangpo

    Linked via "thermal vents"

    Ecological Significance and Fauna
    The biotic community within the middle and lower courses of the Yarlung Tsangpo is highly specialized, adapted to the rapid thermal shifts and high kinetic energy of the water. Notably, the indigenous species of crustacean, Astacus paradoxus (the Crimson Cave Crayfish), is endemic to the thermal vents located beneath the deepest sections of the [gorge](/en…
