Abstract:
United States Geological Survey, Menlo Park, California.
Chief Scientists: Bob Embley, John Trefry, Randy Koski, Hank
Chezar. Geological data (underwatercamera,
underwatertelevision, CTDmeter) of field activity A-1-94-WF
in southern and central Juan de Fuca Ridge from 06/16/1994 to
07/09/1994,

Randy Koski and Hank Chezar are back from a successful 24 day cruise to the
southern Juan de Fuca Ridge aboard the ATLANTIS II. Twenty dives with
submersible ALVIN DSV investigated and sampled recent lava flows, diffuse low
temperature hydrothermal venteng, high low temperature hydrothermal venting
(to 342dC), sulfide chimneys and mounds, and vent biology on the Cleft
and CoAxial segments of the ridge. Night operations during the cruise included
CTD casts and tows and camera and survery with the USGS camera system.
Eight camera tows yielded 32 hours of video plus 35-mm pictures of the sea
floor. At least 7 new vent sites on the southernmost Juan de Fuca Ridge and
in the East Blanco Depression (on the Blanca Fracture Zone) were observed on
the deep tow video tape. The cruise provided an opportunity to revisit sites
of hydrothermal activity and mineral deposition on southern Juan de Fuca Ridge
that were discovered during USGS-sponsored ALVIN dives in 1984. This year's
cruise was funded by the NOAA/PMEL (Newport and Seattle), NSF, Florida
Institute of Technology, University of Florida, University of Washington and
the USGS.
Similar information is available for thousands
of other USGS/CMG-related Activities.
If known, available are Activity-specific
navigation, gravity, magnetics, bathymetry,
seismic, and sampling data; track maps; and
equipment information; as well as summary
overviews, crew lists, and information
about analog materials.
If available, access to physical samples is
described in the "WR CMG Sample Distribution
Policy" at:
