Data Trawler - Survey Details

FR 02/2002 (alternative identifier: FR200202)    - is a Marine National Facility voyage

Period: 2002-03-01 00:00 to 2002-03-25 00:00 Local

Duration: 24.00 days

From: Cairns To: Rabaul

Region: Coral Sea, China Strait or Jomard Entrance, Vitiaz Strait, Bismarck Sea

Ship: Franklin [details]

Description: General aims are to study modern seafloor hydrothermal ore-forming activity in order to develop improved methods of exploring for ancient mineral deposits on land that originally formed by similar processes.
This voyage concerns Variability related to subduction style of submarine hydrothermal and volcanic activity in the Western Bismarck Island Arc, Papua New Guinea.
Specific aims are to locate, study and sample submarine volcanoes with active hydrothermal systems in the Western Bismarck Island Arc of Papua New Guinea, in particular at sites having highly potassic characteristics and where summit calderas occur.
Methods include Identification of targets using available bathymetric, geophysics (seismicity, satellite gravity and magnetic intensity in particular);
Echosounder profiling; Dredging; CTD-transmissometer tow-yos; Niskin bottle sampling; Bottom-tow video camera; Sediment coring and grabbing (Smith-McIntyre).
