Deployment: MSM37

2014-03-22 - 2014-04-21 western flank of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, 'North Pond' Platform:R/V Maria S. Merian (vessel)

Description

Conducted operations on subseafloor observatories (CORKs) installed during IODP Leg 336 to examine hydrological-geochemical-microbiological interactions in North Pond. The remotely operated vehicle (ROV) Jason II of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (Woods Hole, USA) was the main operational tool.
