Scientific paper

We have observed distinct and significant patterns of excess 3He in bottom waters over the Mid-Atlantic Ridge in the ``TAG hydrothermal field''. The lateral regional gradients are comparable in magnitude to gradients observed in the Galapagos rift, an area of confirmed hydrothermal activity. Together with this, the 3He patterns, magnitudes and vertical gradients all indicate on-going and continuous hydrothermal activity.
