Acoustic imaging of hydrothermal flow regimes started with the incidental recognition of a
plume on a routine sonar scan for obstacles in the path of the human-occupied submersible …

A survey method using acoustic equipment has attracted recently interest of researchers for
the research of gas bubbles and hydrothermal activity because gas bubbles and hot water …

Deep-sea hydrothermal vents are conduits of heat and chemicals from the lithosphere to the
hydrosphere. Their plumes rise hundreds of meters from the seafloor into the water column; …

A statistical model for the time evolution of seafloor roughness due to biological activity is
applied to photographic and acoustic data. In this model, the function describing small scale …

This chapter discusses prospects for designing maps as interactive digital artefacts
integrating visual and acoustic elements to be used over the World Wide Web. To ground …

A method is developed for using multibeam sonar to map the flow velocity field of black
smoker plumes. The method is used to obtain two‐dimensional cross‐sectional maps of …

The circulation of hydrothermal fluid within upper oceanic crust constrains the global
composition of seawater and is also responsible for many of the dynamic chemical and …

Currently, we lack a systematic and remote method for locating and quantifying diffuse
seafloor venting using underwater robotic vehicles. Diffuse flow is characterized by both low …

This dissertation discusses hydrothermal plume hydrography and heat flux measurement at
the Main Endeavour hydrothermal vent field (MEF) on the Endeavour segment (Juan de …

Plumes originating in high‐temperature hydrothermal discharges entrain background water
and often entrain diffuse‐source fluids during convective ascent. The mixing of fluid from …
