Hydrothermal recharge and discharge across 50 km guided by seamounts on a young ridge flank

Hydrothermal circulation within the sea floor, through lithosphere older than one million years (Myr), is responsible for 30% of the energy released from plate cooling, and for 70% of the global heat flow anomaly (the difference between observed thermal output and that predicted by conductive coolin...
