Geochemistry Meets Biochemistry in Hydrothermal Ecosystems

Presenter: Everett Shock, Arizona State University
When: May 1, 2012 2:30PM PDT

I will ponder how we can move from the traditional geochemical framework of water-rock reactions to the more inclusive and realistic water-rock-organic-microbe processes, and how all of this might be modeled. The focus will be on recent experimental work (largely on recent field work in Yellowstone) and the insights gained from theoretical analysis.
