We are back up on the event log. It is 0940 EX time and the ship is located at 85 53.65 00 45.993 and we are currently passing 1300m descending to 2600m. We are diving below a high hydrothermal plume signal discovered during the last leg of this expedition- now referred to as "4a". This is an unexplored region, but multibeam surveys by the EX suggest that there is a well-defined axial volcanic ridge with walls separated by ~500m. We will be starting this Dive - EX1103L2_DIVE08_20110721 - by landing 50m to the east of the plume signal and proceeding to the west. The next nearest intense plume signal is 1700m to the west. 07/21/2011,15:41:25,okeanosexplorer,Hi RI.
