This project investigates the energy acquisition mechanisms of the Rimicaris exoculata shrimp, focusing on its symbiotic relationships with bacteria that utilize hydrogen sulfide and iron. It aims to explore the role of iron isotopes in understanding microbial processes and biogeochemical cycles in deep-sea hydrotherma…
Rimicaris exoculata is a caridean shrimp that lives in the deep ocean around active high-temperature hydrothermal sites.
This chemosynthetic vent species maintains dominant populations at the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and is highly adapted to life in this extreme environment.
Feeding mechanism include grazing on sulfides from hydrothermal chimneys and living in symbiosis with bacteria that are cultivated inside their respiratory and digestive systems.
The energy sources for these symbioses generally r…
