Lost cities

In comparison to the high-temperature hydrothermal vents, biomass at the Lost City vent field is much lower and the macrofauna are much smaller, typically less than 100 pm. These macrofeuna are predominantly gastropods and polychaetes with 58% of the species being endemic, including nine new species of crustaceans ... 

Microbial niches in serpentization-influenced environments at the Lost City hydrothermal vent field. 

These redox reactions are abiogenic, whereas the methane sinks are thought to be biogenic, such as the anaerobic oxidation of methane by archaea as observed at the Lost City vent fields (Figure 19.20). Microbial production of methane has also been observed at this site.

Nautical archaeology is the branch of archaeology concerned with the excavation, identification, and study of the remains of sunken ships. The techniques used in nautical archaeology can be applied to the study of submerged ports, lost cities, sacrificial wells, and other underwater sites. 

Back to South America, in the appendix of his book The Rivers Ran East, about exploring the headwaters of the Amazon, Leonard Claik lists many native Indian pharmaceuticals known at the time, approximately about 1946. Other descriptions contained in the text, if not specific, are certainly intriguing. Earlier, as has been indicated. Colonel P. H. Fawcett had made a number of entries in his journals, published as Lost Trails, Lost Cities. It may be assumed that many more are known today, as studies of the Amazonian rain forest proliferate, before time runs out, in the face of its continued destraction.

The orbits shown are projections onto the ecliptic plane (orbits of the terrestrial planets and Jupiter in color are included with y, the vernal equinox). Pribram and Neuschwanstein had identical orbits, but are of different chondritic types. (Reproduced with permission from reference 1. Copyright 2006 Elsevier.) (See page 12 of color inserts.)...
