Suppose Nautilus Minerals decides to expand its deep-sea mining efforts to other nearby hydrothermal vent systems after they finish mini ng the Manus basin sites. Their plan is to relocate to hydrothermal vent sites at Lau Basin after finishing their work in Manus basin, suggesting that the Manus Basin sites could potentially be repopulated by hydrothermal vent communities in North Fiji Basin while they work in Lau Basin. Do the results of Thaler et al. support this plan? Explain your answer.
