hypothermalとは 意味・読み方・使い方

形容詞

hypothermal (not comparable)

1. Involving extremely low temperatures.
   • 1958, Selected Bibliographies of Hydrothermal and Magmatic Mineral Deposits, →ISBN:

     If the ore body shows only one stage of economically important mineralization yet contains minerals which are typical of, for example, both hypothermal and mesothermal conditions, it is classified under both headings.

   • 2015 August 12, “Transcriptomic Analysis of Metabolic Pathways in Milkfish That Respond to Salinity and Temperature Changes”, in PLOS ONE‎^[1], DOI:10.1371/journal.pone.0134959:

     Although FW- and SW-acclimated milkfish have different levels of tolerance for hypothermal stress, to date, the molecular physiological basis of this difference has not been elucidated.

2. (geology) Formed or deposited under hypothermal conditions.
   • 2012, Boyle, Gold: History and Genesis of Deposits, →ISBN, page 223:

     In view of the important work of R. E. Gibson on the elevation of the inversion temperature of quartz with increased pressure, and the discovery by V.B. Meen of high-quartz in certain of the Canadian hypothermal veins, are we still to accept Lindgren's estimate of the temperature ranges of deposition of the various classes of deposits commonly called hydrothermal without making necessary adjustments dependent upon the depth at which mineralization took place?
