Purpose
Abstract Volcanological, palaeozeanographical and heat flow measurements along Kurile-Kamchatka and Aleutian marginal Sea-Islands and the Bering Sea. The accuracy of the depth data obtained from the EM120 is usually critically dependent upon weather conditions and the use of a correct sound speed profile. During SO201-2 sound profiles have been recorded after reaching the working area, ensuring the use of the correct sound velocity on this cruise
