The process of chemosynthesis is similar to photosynthesis. Both can be defined as the creation of organic matter from the fixation of inorganic carbon using energy. But what differs is the source of that energy. In parts of the deep sea, primary production is fuelled by chemical energy, rather than energy from the sun. But this can only take place at certain sea-floor environments where the required chemicals are released into the water. The two main examples of such environments are hydrothermal vents, and cold seeps. The former were only discovered in 1977 when scientists were exploring an oceanic spreading ridge near the Galapagos Islands. What they discovered was a hidden world that revolutionised our understanding of how and where life on Earth can exist. Since then, hundreds more vent field have been discovered, often at depths of 2km or more, along Earth’s convergent plate boundaries and at sea-floor spreading regions where the oceanic crust is moving apart.

This is fantastic, what a great film! Really exciting. I especially appreciate the captions on the screen, such as the species classification and mathematical breakdown of chemosynthetic processes. The score is just as beautiful as the footage. Amazing work, please continue to make these films!
What up homey?
Hope all is well.
Thanks for another awesome video.
Holy smokes, its worth the wait for the best content on the tube.
Always worth the wait, my friend! 💖
Just a quick fact: planting trees is great in theory, but while trees are saplings, they actually produce more carbon dioxide than they remove. This is why old growth forests are so important.
This couldn't have came out with better timing. Just started my lunch break, so now I get to relax, eat and enjoy some awesome deep sealife.
Woohoo I’m delighted!! I really hope you enjoy, let me know your thoughts :)
@@NaturalWorldFacts definitely enjoyed the longer video as well as the topics. Particularly interested in the cold seeps.
Same here
I always want to know, can you eat this creatures?, and how it tastes?,
Is it taste like a normal seafood or a bit garlicky because of the sulfur?, do you need to cook it?, i mean its already boiling hot down there.
I am hungry
Geologist here, I absolutely love this channel and its really great footage.
One mistake I'd point out tho is that hydrothermal vents are not found near convergent plate boundaries, they're found in divergent plate boundaries.
See : the divergence is caused by crustal thinning near Medio oceanic ridges, this cause a very high geothermal gradient that allow hot fluids to form in the oceanic crust.
Convergent plate boundaries, aka subduction zones and collision zones are generally lower geothermal gradient
Thanks for the information and I truly appreciate the attention to detail and correction, but according to my sources and university lecturer, vents are able form at both - they of course mainly form at divergent plates, but I mentioned ‘as well as convergent’ in the video as there have been a number of isolated vent systems found at convergent plate regions. See below:
oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/vents.html
‘Hydrothermal vents are the result of seawater percolating down through fissures in the ocean crust in the vicinity of spreading centers or subduction zones (places on Earth where two tectonic plates move away or towards one another).’
@@NaturalWorldFacts my bad ! I suppose the convergent ones lower temperature or caused by intrusions?
That would certainly make sense! And it’s something I’d love to delve into more to understand how the geological origins and resulting chemistry of vents at these two regions differ - but you’re absolutely right that MOST vents form at sea-floor spreading regions :D
I suppose the hydrothermal vents at convergent plate boundaries would not occur directly at the plate boundary, but rather behind where usually the vulcanic arcs form
I loved this comment thread
Leo, this is so cool. Between the narration, and the footage, and the illustrations, it’s really impressive. Your bio says you’ve been doing this for a decade and it definitely shows with the quality of your content.
Thanks for this Erik, I really appreciate the kind words!! I love making these so much
Is name is Leo ?
Whoa. You teach me something.
@@jorismilleret why do random people do that tho Like that creator prob made their name like that for a reason
@@TvTink I think you're.. Right ?
@@jorismilleret their name is in their yt bio! ^^
Finding high quality documentaries about nature, especially the ocean, Is a tall order more often than not, so the accidental (and serendipitous) discovery of this channel was like manna from the heavens. I can't tell you how much I appreciate and respect the time and effort you expend putting these videos together, as well as your willingness to share them. Always looking forward to the next installation.
Thank you so much for this ☺️ I love making these, and getting feedback like yours makes it all worthwhile
I was wondering if you can provide additional sources where I can get more detailed information ref tspecific types of hydrothermal vent communities?
I dream of moons of Saturn Jupiter's moons having ecosystems like this in their sub surface oceans. Since they've proven to have huge heated water geysers on the surface, so that proves there is a heat source, and heat, power source under the water there, it's awesome 👍
Absolutely. I'd love to explore such an environment someday
I dream of beautiful women and other such deep and meaningful things, like visiting Buckingham palace and having a really, REALLY smelly and huge rope like dump on the royal toilet that has had reigning monarchs squeezing one out and leaving it unflushed💩🤔😂 you have very very strange dreams you do🤣😂...me..I'm just a normal bloke with earthly thoughts and dreams, you intellectual types are wired very different than us normal people, I watch this and wonder if my turds would sink to the bottom and provide a feast for all those....crabs and ' bottom dwellers' or would it float...I found out that dolphins have been discovered with shite in their systems as when tney swim in pods behind each other, the ones at front, shit on the go and it's unavoidably swallowed by those swimming behind, gross...but true...!! I didn't dream that, it was fkn nightmare...so if you come back as a dolphin...DO NOT swim at the rear of the pod.😂🤣
@@Someone-sq8im I hope you get your wish, just don't pin ALL your hopes and dreams on it happening, you may be in for disappointment bud...lol. just dream of beautiful women..or men if that's your bag, it's much easier to have your dreams fulfilled 😔💯
@@modernista6056 Did I ask?
@@Someone-sq8im bruuuh
As a researcher I often find myself looking for channels with relevant scientific information. I can say without a doubt that this channel is one of the best. The amount of information, the way you explain everything and the little explored theme gives me chills everytime
Oh that’s fantastic, thank you so much Douglas! I’d be fascinated to hear about some of your research :D
This is one of the best bio channels on CZcams
I have severe insomnia and this video has helped me actually fall asleep. This is a massive deal for me, so thank you for creating such relaxing, informative content.
Sorry? Did you fall asleep then wake up and make this comment, or did it before you fell asleep (which would mean it didn't actually make you fall asleep..)?
This channel has genuinely inspired me to pursue my childhood dream of becoming a marine biologist. Found your channel about a month ago and I have seen every single video at this point. Best CZcams channel out there. Keep it up!!!!
That was my original dream before I leaned how much I love computers and IT. I hope you follow through with it! It’s hard work to get there but it’s totally worth it
Marine biology is my second field of interest. The abundance of sea life is absolutely mind-blowing, at least to me. My main areas of geological interest are the seafloor, abyssal plains, spreading ridges, and trenches. In line with that, my main areas of biological interest are deep sea life, especially that at the hydrothermal vents, trenches, and
on the abyssal plains.
I wish you much luck in your pursuit of your dream of being a marine biologist. It's a wonderful profession and there is so much left to learn!
The amount of joy that I get every time you upload is unfathomable. I absolutely adore the ocean and your videos give me life.
Your voice is otherworldly, every time I listen to your videos I go into a trance. Its like sudden onset hypnosis, you could probably tell me to do anything and I’d do it. I’m glad you’ve chosen to use your powers for good rather than evil, good on you.
This video was so amazing, but then again I love all of your videos! I am particularly fascinated with deep sea vents. I think they're my favorite deep sea environment to learn about. I remember watching a documentary about them when I was young, back in the late 70s or early 80s and they were a brand new discovery. I think that was the first time I really understood how much we still have to learn about our planet. Thank you for your amazing and entertaining work!
Thank you for this comment Laurie, I really appreciate the kind words, and I can’t imagine how exhilarating it must have been to witness footage of vents for the first time as an entire ecosystem new to science!! Their discovery was pivotal in so many ways.
Most interesting is that life probably originated from hydrothermal (alkalkaline) vents. You should read "The vital question" by Nick Lane. An amazing inquiry into the origin of life.
@@TheSeBjo Thanks for the recommendation. It sounds like a book I'd love to read!
I'm so happy the algorithm blessed me with this video! I did a school project on hydrothermal vents around 2007 and found it to be fascinating but incredibly frustrating as there was very little information available. I could tell there was a beautiful story there, but I was unable to see how it all fit together and ultimately I was unsatisfied with the story I presented in my project. Watching this video is like a dream come true. Impossibly satisfying. Thank you for telling this story in such a beautiful way.
It's absolutely remarkable what images the technology of today can get us. Just imagine, decades ago people would have a hard time to even imagine what the depths of the ocean or the surface of other planets in out solar system looked like, and today any average Joe can look up pictures or videos of either. Truly amazing...
Poetic narration combined with excellent moving picture - your channel is what the History Channel should be.
A number of my students have asked about the possibility of life on other planet, and I've tried to get across the idea that it's likely to exist in our solar system with water oceans being confirmed on at least 2 moons (europa and encelidus). I've been looking for a video like this to help with explaining chemosynthetic life, so thank you for putting this out
When i was younger i use to watch nature show on PBS and public access channels with my father. Watching this now bring back the feeling
Oh that’s so lovely to hear!! In my childhood, it was Attenborough’s films that captured my imagination and kindled my passion for wildlife
Yeah
Fantastic, as always, and well worth the wait! The beauty of the deep sea always astonishes me. It's hard to remember that all of this exists in utter, complete darkness except when a rover lights it up. Thank you, Leo, for another great video!
Leo, amazing content as always. I’d still love to see a video on Arctic deep sea creatures. You’re the next Attenborough. I’ll say it on every video I comment on!
Boom! This covers the polar deep :D czcams.com/video/Rw4WX2Dd8HA/video.html
P.s. your comment made my day! Thank you so so much for the kind words
Just wanted to say that of all the many many nature channels I follow, I think you've managed to become my favorite over the past few years. The quality (and relevance) of the 4k footage paired with the perfect background music and soothing narration serves as an excellent medium for your delivery of fascinating concepts and explanations of life we may never get to experience in person. Personally, my favorite videos of yours are the phylum and biome overviews, but I still watch everything because it's all top tier content. Love your channel man, I look forward to seeing your journey and learning tons more about ocean life!!
Absolutely love the ground up description of these vent ecosystems, you structured this video super well and it made it very easy to understand the importance of the micro levels of this ecosystem and their impact on visible life and structures (despite the areas looking deceptively barren at times) . Another fantastic video as always, keep up the wonderful work dude :)
WOW!! the ecological systems of these deep sea vents are absolutely insane. They were always kind mentioned offhand in bio classes, so I'm glad to have a deeper look here. What an incredible discovery it must have been to realize not all ecosystems are ultimately dependent on the Sun. Amazing video! HYPED for Part 2!!
Absolutely awesome. This channel rekindled my passion for the ocean some time ago and because of it I got my open water diving certification completed with PADI last weekend. Thank you for all the work you do, much love from Florida!
I'm so incredibly happy to have found your videos - this is genuinely my favourite channel on all of CZcams. Everything about these videos is so lovely! The consistent flow of the writing, the seamless editing - and who could forget the narration? Your voice is so well suited to narration, and matches the ethereal beauty of the deep sea perfectly!
I find a lot of educational videos can lose my interest, but the pacing you use not only keeps my attention, but makes me want to actively remember the facts you share.
A goal of mine is to make a video game set in the ocean, and these videos are a great source of inspiration for that. Thank you so much for all you do!
I cannot get over how beautiful this is. The cadences of your vocals, the music and the clips; absolute perfection, in my opinion. Brilliant job!
I was just working on my report about protists of the abyssal plain and near hydrothermal vents for my bio class. This is so helpful and what good timing! Thank you for amazing videos as always.
Funny that you should post a video about this topic today! As it turns out, I'm writing an essay about biodiversity increasing as we go closer to the tropics - however, there are some exceptions to this, for instance, hydrothermal vent ecosystems are superdiverse, but they occur anywhere there's underwater volcanism, there isn't an increasing gradient of them as we go to lower latitudes!
How have you been? Hope life and studies are treating you well!
Hello Christian, I’ve been doing well thank you - managing uni and CZcams has been stressful, but I love it all! How about you? That sounds like a fascinating essay topic, I’d love to hear more about what you found out regarding exceptions to the trend of biodiversity increasing with proximity to the tropics. Sorry for not being so active lately on the chat - the uni stress hasn’t helped matters but it’s so wonderful to hear from you!! Will definitely drop you a message to catch up at some point!
@@NaturalWorldFacts It's great to hear from you! Trust me, I get why uni is stressful these days.. I guess you've got exams coming up too? That's actually why I'm writing this essay, it's practice for one of my ecology exams! If you want to know more about it... well basically, there are different interpretations for why diversity peaks in the tropics and tapers towards the poles. There's a big divide between those who think that increased exposure to sunlight (in the tropics) is beneficial to historical/long-term evolution, or whether it's beneficial to short-term, ecological factors relating to resource use... Or who knows, maybe both! And yeah, the marine ecosystems don't really obey this pattern, because as I'm sure you know from all the videos you've been making, marine ecosystems don't depend on energy from solar radiation as absolutely as terrestrial ecosystems (hydrothermal vents, methane seeps...) Anyway long story short, that's my essay :) I'll make sure to catch up your other documentary vids in between exams!
The videos you make are absolutely stunning. I mean, How does one romanticise deep sea vents like this? SO informative and a gorgeous set of images. Oh yeah, And I could listen to you speak for hours. Than you so, so much for creating this for us
This is absolutely the best channel ive ever discovered ive been fascinated by the oceans a long time and the incredible way u narrate these amazing videos just make me fall in love even more. Seriously, u do an incredible job, i enjoy each second of each episode sometimes without even realizing that 20 minutes have passed. I really hope u keep doing this wonderful videos and that u get some income from them because i can doubtless say, u deserve it
Your voice is so soothing. I watch these to learn stuff but that voice makes me sleepy so I end up having to watch each video in two parts because I fall asleep in the middle.
This is the first video of yours that I’ve watched and honestly the quality is outstanding. You explained everything very well, and every piece worked perfectly together: footage, music, narration, graphics/labels… Truly incredible and highly professional. I hope you list this on your resumes because this is as good as professional documentaries
I can't watch this now. The combination of the visuals and this guys voice are way too soothing and I've got work to do.
I'm saving this for later, after supper; it will give me something to look forward to
I can’t wait to see what you think of it later, Patrick! Hope work goes well 🦈
I love that the wetness on your vocal audio is up high it goes so well with the setting of the entire video.
Another incredible video!! I am always so impressed by your clarity and level of explanation- you make the content make sense without repeating the same info over and over, and I always come away amazed by your obvious passion for the oceans. Thank you for all your hard work, and I look forward to the next part!
I finally found the time to watch this. And this is a moment where I need to really "sink into the topic" and relax for a bit. Hydrothermal vents are probably the topic that got me excited for the deep in the first place when I was younger, maybe aside from the bioluminescence. It's lovely to learn something new about the topic. Until recently, I didn't know there were white smokers, until I watched another of your videos. Thanks a lot for making these. I'm very excited for the cold seeps now. :)
Thank you so much, this was so lovely to read ☺️
@@NaturalWorldFacts And it was lovely to watch :)
These videos are well done and technical, not only entertaining. It's clear you have a deep knowledge of biology. I hope this channel keeps growing in popularity because it deserves to
Your videos are so relaxing, they’ve really helped my insomnia. Thank you
I'm a highschool student with a biochem major and I want to become a doctor. Learning biology gets tough but your videos remind me how fascinating and everpresent life is. Thanks
Yes! Here it is! I’ve been anticipating this one since the update that it was still being edited. Haven’t even watched it yet, but here’s my thumbs up and my gratitude for you making such awesome videos
Yep that was fantastic. Thank you so much
Thank you so much for this!! I’m delighted that you enjoyed ☺️
Wonderfully narrated and great rare footage.
Thank you
I've never felt so calm as someone tells me about " drifting fecal matter...."
So excited for this series!!! 😍 This is prime quality!!! All the footage!! Awesome
Your channel is medicine for me...no chemical puts me to sleep and calms me down like one of your videos....you need to get your own tv channel cause this is pure gold I've just found on CZcams for free.
Love love love 💕 your videos Leo. Thank you for all your work to bring these wonderful projects to us!
Thank you so much thats so sweet ☺️☺️
I love this channel and your videos. The amount of work you put into them really shows and your voice is very relaxing.
When i was a wee boy, I watched many documentaries and read many books about marine life. Although this interest mostly died out in my teen years, it's still exciting to relive these moments and now I get to learn new things rather than look at outdated information from those same books printed more than 8 years ago
Absolutely fascinating and super quality video, like all your others. When I was younger, I was super passionate about learning of the deep sea, and your videos with the amazing footage continues that flame. So thank you!
thank you for these videos! they’re always great to watch and the narration is nice on the ears. i was a bit surprised when my marine bio teacher started playing one for the class a little while back, but they’re a perfect fit for a classroom setting!
i was given the task to report hydrothermal energy last Monday and this is a very big coincidence to bump into this video today! keep up the good work and spread more information about hydrothermal vents and energy!
I usually lurk in the comments, but I just wanna say that the music fits so well, and it makes you feel like you're actually there.
Im in love with this video!! So beatiful and informative! thanks a lot for sharing!
Your videos are always so well made and educational. Thank you for the time and dedication you put into this! I learned so much :D I hope your channel continues to grow, you deserve it
Oh I've been looking for this video so much. I've already seen your videos about Brine pools and whale fall communities and loved them but geothermal vents were always the most magic to me
Thank you for having the conversions on the screen. Never mind, it was short-lived.
I’ll try do it more consistently in future!! For reference, here are all measurements from this video converted :)
Typical vent depth: 2km (6,561ft)
Max vent fluid temp: 400C (752F)
Chimey height: over 50m (180ft)
Across a distance of around 10cm (3.9in), temperatures drop from over 300C (572F) to just 2C (35.6F)
Microbes tolerate fluids as hot as 122C (251.6F)
Pompeii worm tubes reach 80C (176F)
Hope this helps!
@Natural World Facts Thank you. I really do appreciate it.
One should not be afraid of evolution, to find the truth about it, and how it works, because it holds such wonders, and how beautifully and amazingly complex our life truly is.
It shows how unique, every being on this world is, because some may be similar, but so very different, which is beautiful in my eyes.
Absolutely!!
Your documentary always carried me away, what's so cool to imagine a little
Amazing Leo! I love what you offer. What an amazing young man you are and been amazing since your youngest years. What fun it is to see where you take this path you've created.
Brilliant photography, great video. Thanks.
Beautifully done! Such fascinating and delightfully weird places - and the creatures are this wonderful mixture of the familiar and the alien. It's no wonder that some old sci-fi thriller movies decided to make vent tube worms into "monstrous" backdrops, really. They can seem uncanny when you don't know anything about them yet! Definitely looking forward to the next in this series!
Beautifully done!
such great work. thanks for bringig the deep to our understanding
getting this notification was the most exciting thing for me all week this is a great day for the wet community
Aww thank you so much I really really hope you enjoy!!

Giggity.
@@Lrr_Of_Omikron well now you see i didn't mean it like that-
@@cca1834 I know, the juvenile part of my brain couldn't help it tho.
this video was so breathtaking!!! learning abouy their ecosystems, n how they grow to evolve is so fascinating, knowing how some of the same species evolve very differently to compete/live in their environment is so cool
A naturalist from the Ecuador & Galapagos. Vents could occurring pretty much everywhere in deep ocean floor though they probably would more in spreading plates areas but not only there. Probably most know now that Panama and the Galapagos was recently found to be connected by an ocean floor vent or sort of a lava tunnel ...
Love the music ❤ That mixed with narration and all those beautiful images is just a delight
I love learning about the deep sea! Hydrothermal Vents are probably some of my favorite forms of life. It's fascinating to think that this is where life on Earth started, and that is why NASA searches for oceans or other sources of water on other planets.
Lovely, soothing narration!
Again such a banger before bedtime, loved it!
I really like your style of narration, its eloquently done and the reverb that you have on your voice is a nice touch to it,. coupled with the music it gives a really nice feel, it reminds me of how the NPCs talk in Darksouls. You are like someone who is telling important Lore of the game!
I love it, I really enjoy this videos, thankyou for the information and the footage! its amazing
Yes! 🙌 he’s baaaaack!! Lovely as always Leo! I still watch your videos everyday to relax and learn new things 🖖
Realy well done Leo 👍👍
thank you smuch ...
Love your videos! Very fascinating and relaxing 😌 🌊
I just subscribed to your channel because of this show,I love things like this, such a nice show, please keep up the good work !!
Wild how these recorded dives are the first and only times these animals see the world around them in full light
You never cease to amaze me with these videos. You're gonna hit a million subs in less than a year, I guarantee it.
Это невообразимо) Это удивительно, спасибо!)
I’ve never found a channel I love this much. Thanks for making this content ❤
I can't find the words to express how amazing your work is
8pm I’m on my lunch break this is perfect! Can’t wait to rewatch it in 6 hours!
What I saw is nothing short of a miracle being narrated and visually shown, wow.
This is so cool! I always love watching your videos I learn things that are truly so deeply fascinating!
I really needed this video today thank you for posting
Really hope you enjoyed ☺️
Amazing video!
awesome video! Thank you!
I freaking love this channel!!! It's so informative. ❤
Thank you so much Craig ❤️
Love that hydrothermal vents was a jeopardy answer today and here is a video on them
I’m excited to learn about cold seeps on the next one! Love your videos
I love your videos, they always bring a smile to my day, and always pique my curiosity, thank you and keep up the good work.
Calm and soothing 💯😇
Beautiful video. Well produced and well narrated.
Thank you ☺️☺️
I love all of your ocean-related videos but I find I find hydrothermal vents especially interesting. There is just something...primal and dynamic about them. I also find the theory that life originated at hydrothermal vents fascinating. And some of them look like pieces of abstract art. BBC's "Blue Planet II" episode "The Deep" shows hydrothermal vents with reflective properties.
If you haven't already done so, I hope you will do videos on cold seeps and whale falls. The deep sea and seafloor environments are incredible.
Thank you for this lovely comment! And keep an eye out today if you’re still hoping for a cold seep film 😉 you’re in for a treat’
@@NaturalWorldFacts Thank you do much!
Let's go dude. Can't wait for part 2.
Some of the best information and facts on deep Marine sea life I've ever seen, Cheers!
Along with my other comments on your videos it's honestly mind blowing how much super high quality footage we have of deep sea ecosystems. I need to find a way to make enough money to fund research for stuff like this
Excellent educative video on the biome of hydrothermal vents.
You are up there with the greats in narration ( David Attenborough) Great video. Leo you are a gift to the world
You are the absolute best i love every single video thank you for what you do !!
crazy I just thought about watching a video about hydrothermal vents cause I saw a post about that snail with the iron shell that lives there and then there's a new video on hydrothermal vents the literal next day.
Thank you!
