Si la notion d'un apport dans le métamorphisme s'est imposée très tôt à l'esprit des chercheurs, il semble qu'il faille la cantonner aujourd'hui au seul métamorphisme hydrothermal. Les premiers rapprochements ont été faits avec les fumerolles volcaniques génératrices de minéraux alors qu'elles sont encore gazeuses [...] ou aqueuses [...] 4, record 1, French, - m%C3%A9tamorphisme%20hydrothermal

Ocean-floor metamorphism is a type of metamorphism of regional or local extent related to the steep geothermal gradient occurring near spreading centres in oceanic environments. The recrystallisation, which is mostly incomplete, encompasses a wide range of temperatures. The metamorphism is associated with circulating hot aqueous fluids (with related metasomatism) and typically shows an increasing temperature of metamorphism with depth. 5, record 3, English, - ocean%2Dfloor%20metamorphism
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 2 CONT
During extension at mid-ocean ridges(red-orange), convection carries heat to very shallow levels, where 7-km thick oceanic crust forms; hydrothermal circulation produces low P/T metamorphism, often called seafloor metamorphism : Many good examples of seafloor metamorphism are known from ophiolites in the Sierra Nevada and Klamaths. 3, record 3, English, - ocean%2Dfloor%20metamorphism
