Purpose
Abstract Cruise S0133 of RV Sonne conducted detailed mapping and sampling in the active tectonic zone south of Lihir Island, Papua New Guinea. The objectives of the cruise were to establish the extent of volcanism and hydrothermal activity associated with active extension of the old forearc crust of the New Ireland Basin in the vicinity of Lihir. A total of 18 HYDROSWEEP profiles with altogether 35.5 hours of ship time were performed in order to remap the area south of Lihir using differential GPS. Other acquisition information have not been provided by the responsible party.
