Funding Agencies: |
NSF/OCE/MGG - 1801036 - Funded |
|
Summary of Field Work: |
Field work will involve multiple ROV dives to collect water, volatile, and rock samples from the Piccard and Von Damm vent fields. We anticipate ~5 dives, each lasting ~2 days. CTD operations will be performed while ROV is on deck. Jason is requested since the depth of the Piccard field is ~5000 m. |
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
ROV JASON, CTD/rosette, elevators |
|
Summary of other requirements and comments: |
Three additional days of ship time have been funded through a complementary NASA proposal (UNOLS project ID 105539; PI Rogers, RPI; NASA 16-PSTAR16-0056; The DEEP Project: DEtecting Extraterrestrial Piezophiles in Ocean World Analogs). A separate ship time request has been submitted by PI Rogers, but these two cruises should be combined. |
