Stauromedusan populations inhabiting deep-sea hydrothermal vents along the southern East Pacific Rise
Dense populations of “stalked jellyfish” (Stauromedusae) were encountered at two geographically-separated, deep-sea hydrothermal vent fields located at 7°26’S; and 20°02’S along the East Pacific Rise (EPR). DSV Alvin was utilized (on dives 3320 and 3334) at the sites to collect numerous stauromedusans, which were immediately frozen (at -70°C) or preserved in 70% ethanol upon arrival on board th...
متن کاملTidal Triggering Of
Analysis of the tidal stress tensor at the time of moderate to large earthquakes fails to confirm an earlier hypothesis that the origin times of shallow dip-slip earthquakes correlate with solid-earth tidal shear stress, Furthermore, no correlation is seen for either tidal shear stress or tidal normal-to-the-fault compressive stress with shallow strike-slip earthquakes or with deep earthquakes....
متن کاملBroadband marine MT exploration of the East Pacific Rise at 9 50 0 N
[1] We present the first use at a mid-ocean ridge of a recently developed broadband marine magnetotelluric (MT) instrument. The extended high frequency performance of the instrument allows resolution of electrical resistivity structure at shallower depths than traditional marine MT sensors. Our two-dimensional inversion model from data collected at four MT sites on the East Pacific Rise (EPR) a...

متن کاملSeismicity at the southern East Pacific Rise from recordings of an ocean bottom seismometer array
[1] Seismic data recorded by ocean bottom seismometers (OBSs) at the southern East Pacific Rise (SEPR) were analyzed to characterize seismicity at fast spreading mid-ocean ridges. An automated event detection algorithm based on pattern recognition was developed to identify earthquake-generated T phases. The waveform cross-correlation and least squares method was found to provide more robust est...
