Description:

Abstract:: NOAA PMEL EOI Program GIS Data. A map of more than 550 confirmed and inferred hydrothermal vent sites. The data set was compiled by Stace Beaulieu (WHOI) using lists maintained by Mark Hannington (University of Ottawa, Canada), Ed Baker (NOAA/PMEL, USA), and Sven Petersen (IFM-GEOMAR, Germany).
Purpose: Known hydrothermal vent locations.
