| Abstract | During cruise S0109-2, a joint research team conducted a detailed survey of the present state of the Volcano and its associated hydrothermal activity. This collaborative project led to the first deployment and testing of Canadas deep submergence vehicle ROPOS. The principal scientific objective of the cruise was to document ongoing tectonic and volcanic activity at Axial Volcano and to monitor the changing hydrothermal fluxes. A mapping program using SONNEs Hydrosweep system was carried out to survey the area of Axial Volcano including the North and South Rift Zones. A total of 53 Hydrosweep profiles was compiled to encompassing the CASM and ASHES Fields, the South Rift Zone, and the North Rift Zone. The bathymetry provides an important baseline for ongoing monitoring of volcanic and tectontic activity at Axial. Further acquisition information have not been provided yet. |
