Log Post: Architecture of the Depths
Traducción al español a continuación In all of the known universe, Earth is the only planet that hosts not only life, but also liquid water on its surface. Our oceans, rich in marine life, cover approximately 71% of the Earth’s outermost layer, which geologists refer to as “The Crust” (Fig 1). Mapmaking technology, or cartography, … Continued
Log Post: Tectonics and Mapping – Video Update
“Our aim is to acquire high-resolution images of the seafloor so we can better interpret all of the tectonic processes related to the ongoing opening of the Gulf of California along this region.” Leg One of the #PescaderoVentDiving2 expedition is all about tectonics and mapping. In this video, researchers on R/V Falkor explain what they … Continued
