The Aurora hydrothermal vent field (AVF) is the first confirmed active vent system on the Arctic Ocean seafloor, located at the western end of the ultraslow spreading Gakkel Ridge. It marks a distinctive endmember among ridge‐axis hydrothermal systems, where volcanic construction and ultramafic influence co‐exist. Th...

Ultraslow spreading ridges are a vital part of mid-ocean ridge systems, consisting of both magmatic and amagmatic spreading segments. Hydrothermal vents play a key role in the transfer of matter and heat from the lithosphere to the hydrosphere and biosphere. However, research on the relationship between magmatism, faul...

The largest and longest ocean bottom seismometer (OBS) experiment so far in the Atlantic Ocean occurred as part of the UPFLOW project to better constrain upward mantle flow, which is crucial to understanding global mantle flow. UPFLOW deployed 50 and recovered 49 OBSs in a ∼ 1,000 × 2,000 km2 area in the Azores-Madeira...
