Determine which oceanographic and geologic processes control the growth of colbalt-rich Fe-Mn crusts.
Description
Korea Ocean Research and Development Institute (KORDI),United States Geological Survey, Menlo Park, California. Chief Scientist: Jim Hein. CTD and High-Resolution Seismic and Sampling and Seabeam data (3dot5khz, 12khz, airgun, bathymetry, dredge, pistoncore, boxcore, underwatertelevision, CTDmeter, multicore) of field activity KODOS_98-3 (O-1-98-WP) in Lomilik Guyot, Marshall Is., Federated States of Micronesia from 08/13/1998 to 08/28/1998
Location
Federated States of Micronesia
Summary
Shipboard operations on Litakpooki Ridge included four dredge hauls, two piston cores, two CTD casts, and 534 km of seabeam bathymetiric lines including 152 km of 12- channel airgun lines. Operations on the Yap Convergent Margin included five dredge hauls, two piston cores, two box cores, two multiple cores, Nicne CTD casts, one deep sea camera video survey, and 737 km of seabeam bathymetric lines and 12-channel airgun lines. Of the nine dredge hauls attempted, six provided usable samples, one contained mostly pumice, and two had no recovery.
