Description:
Abstract: NOAA PMEL Vents Program research sites and expeditions.
Purpose:
VENTS conducts research on the impacts and consequences of submarine volcanism and hydrothermal venting on the global ocean and deep-sea ecosystems. This research includes exploration, time-series observations, remote monitoring, and innovative instrumentation and aims to provide timely information to the scientific community and the general public via peer-reviewed scientific publications and internet-accessible data and educational products.
Map was developed to show where the Vents Program has conducted research.
