09/25/2014,10:33:09,briankennedy,So far so good this morning. It looks like we might get a dive in today
09/25/2014,10:48:19,briankennedy,  Good Morning All  The weather this morning looks good enough to get wet. However, we are going to have to dive the alternative dive sites on the western face of Retriever instead of the north. We are moving to the alternative site now and we will be in the water between 0800 and 0830.  We will have to monitor the weather and currents closely though out the dive and if they start to build we will need the dive early.   
09/25/2014,11:50:17,Tim Shank,Good morning all.
09/25/2014,11:55:29,Scott France,Good morning Tim, Ellie, Mike.
09/25/2014,11:55:46,Scott France,Looking significantly better out here today than yesterday.
09/25/2014,12:01:17,Scott France,Brendan Reser has set up the chat to have depth and temp automatically added from navdata to eventlog every 5 minutes. So, in most cases we will not need to type in depth today. This is a test run and we welcome your feedback.

09/25/2014,13:00:00,briankennedy,  Just a preemptive warning. Our satellite downlink station in New Jersey is forecasted to have some bad weather today that might result in a degradation of video from the ship. They are monitoring it closely but you may see some video drops as the weather moves through.    
09/25/2014,13:00:54,Scott France,Thanks Amy. I did a bunch of research on xenos last night so hope to further educate and entertain whoever tunes in today! Just have to find some more now.

09/25/2014,15:05:15,jasonchaytor,The only way to determine IRD from seamount source is to pick it up and cut it open.  Most IRD out here is granitic, but the texture is obscured by the FeMn
09/25/2014,15:05:57,jasonchaytor,Deposit density is an indicator as well, but not perfect
09/25/2014,15:06:34,Kasey Cantwell,Jason- what is IRD?
09/25/2014,15:06:51,jasonchaytor,Ice rafted debris
09/25/2014,15:07:31,jasonchaytor,Material picked up by glaciers and dropped from icebergs as they melt
09/25/2014,15:09:17,okexnav,DEPTH :: 2085.1 m,TEMP ::  3.44292 C
09/25/2014,15:09:30,susanschnur,We need a new ROV too to somehow sand-blast the mn-crust off the rocks. How about a portable rock saw on the ROV arm??
09/25/2014,15:09:48,susanschnur,new ROV tool
09/25/2014,15:10:11,jasonchaytor,ROV drills are the preferred method
09/25/2014,15:10:26,jasonchaytor,We did just utilize a crow bar with Hercules...worked very well
09/25/2014,15:10:27,susanschnur,how long does it take to drill a core and how long is the core?
09/25/2014,15:10:29,Kasey Cantwell,thanks Jason
09/25/2014,15:10:44,susanschnur,can you get enough force with the crowbar on an ROV?
09/25/2014,15:11:00,susanschnur,I'd love a sense of how fresh the basalt is on these old seamounts.
09/25/2014,15:11:14,amandademopoulos,yes, crowbar works well, we can show u pics
09/25/2014,15:11:35,susanschnur,I think a future plan would be to do detailed age dating for all the seamounts. I think the Duncan et al 1984 paper is the last time anyone tried to date these seamounts.
09/25/2014,15:11:49,susanschnur,great, would love to see pics of crow bar.
09/25/2014,15:12:42,susanschnur,We're seeing up to 10 million year differences in Ar/Ar ages from the 80s/90s and the ages we're getting from our new machine.
09/25/2014,15:12:42,jasonchaytor,You can with a Kraft arm at least.  The leaver action is quite powerful...you either break the rock you are trying to pry off, or the one you are using as the fulcrum
09/25/2014,15:13:09,susanschnur,ok
09/25/2014,15:13:28,jasonchaytor,Drilling takes a while, but you get a core 10's of cm long.  MBARI have done it out in the Pacific
09/25/2014,15:13:57,susanschnur,that would be plenty for an age date, and we'd get fresh material that way too.

09/25/2014,15:26:14,Scott France,So we have had to make some decisions to best adapt to the constraints imposed by the vessel thruster issues...
09/25/2014,15:26:37,Scott France,So our revised plan will be to head up the nearer peak to the ESE.
09/25/2014,15:27:10,Scott France,This won't be as steep, but it will rise and will allow the vessel to avoid lateral motion, which is putting a strain on the system.
09/25/2014,15:27:27,michaelford,JFH
09/25/2014,15:28:53,michaelford,Halicreas sp. maybe... need to see top of bell

09/25/2014,19:07:52,rhianwaller@tethys.gso.uri.edu,Lots of COR cups down there
09/25/2014,19:08:29,Scott France,Ant idea on genus for cup corals?
09/25/2014,19:08:44,okexnav,DEPTH :: 2015.3 m,TEMP ::  3.45650 C
09/25/2014,19:08:45,rhianwaller@tethys.gso.uri.edu,I've seen two definite species go by
09/25/2014,19:08:47,Scott France,*Any
09/25/2014,19:09:00,Scott France,A stampede of urchins URC
09/25/2014,19:09:12,rhianwaller@tethys.gso.uri.edu,One is probably a Caryophyllia of some kind - they settle on tiny pebbles then eventually just live in sediments
09/25/2014,19:09:21,rhianwaller@tethys.gso.uri.edu,It's good to see a high density of them
09/25/2014,19:10:03,rhianwaller@tethys.gso.uri.edu,The other species had a very wide base, so was definitely something different - maybe another species of caryophylla
09/25/2014,19:10:15,rhianwaller@tethys.gso.uri.edu,The sediment dwelling ones have a pointy base
09/25/2014,19:11:03,peterauster,I don't like that term ...
09/25/2014,19:12:42,Scott France,Er… what term?
09/25/2014,19:12:55,rhianwaller@tethys.gso.uri.edu,Petering out....
09/25/2014,19:13:08,rhianwaller@tethys.gso.uri.edu,Nice view of the cup!

09/25/2014,19:14:25,Scott France,Ah. Petering out! Oops. We said it again.
09/25/2014,19:14:36,Scott France,ASR
09/25/2014,19:14:59,peterauster,Look ... their ... "Scotting out" 
09/25/2014,19:17:12,Scott France,They are "Scooter-ing" over the surface.

09/25/2014,19:28:54,Scott France,Please join us to plan the next couple of days. You can see we need to take into account the ship thruster issues in our dive planning.
09/25/2014,19:31:12,kaseycantwell,we recieved an email from one of our viewers that a group of sea urchins is called a  "vagrant" 
09/25/2014,19:31:13,Scott France,1545 EDT for post-dive conference call. See you there.
09/25/2014,19:31:25,Scott France,Wow! A vagrant!
