Hydrothermal Chimney Distribution on the Endeavour Segment, Juan de Fuca Ridge [PDF]
The Endeavour Segment of the Juan de Fuca Ridge is well known for its abundance of hydrothermal vents and chimneys. One‐meter scale multibeam mapping data collected by an autonomous undersea vehicle revealed 572 chimneys along the central 14 km of the ...

Triggering of eruptions at Axial Seamount, Juan de Fuca Ridge. [PDF]
AbstractThe submarine volcano Axial Seamount has exhibited an inflation predictable eruption cycle, which allowed for the successful forecast of its 2015 eruption. However, the exact triggering mechanism of its eruptions remains ambiguous. The inflation predictable eruption pattern suggests a magma reservoir pressure threshold at which eruptions occur,

Asymmetric seafloor depth across the Juan de Fuca Ridge caused by lithospheric heating
Previous studies attribute asymmetries across the East Pacific Rise to horizontal temperature or pressure gradients in the deep asthenosphere caused by the Pacific Superswell, which, however, cannot explain asymmetries observed across the Juan de Fuca ...

Seismic anisotropy of the shallow crust at the Juan de Fuca Ridge [PDF]
Microearthquake data recorded on four ocean bottom seismometers are used to study shear‐wave splitting on the Endeavour Segment of the Juan de Fuca Ridge. The covariance matrix decomposition method is used to determine the sensor orientation from explosive shot data and to estimate the anisotropy parameters for 238 earthquake records.

Cataclysmic hydrothermal venting on the Juan de Fuca Ridge [PDF]
Serial observations of individual submarine hydrothermal vents1 and the mapping of dilute hydrothermal plumes extending far downcurrent from vent fields2–4 indicate a stability of vent field fluid composition and mass flux on at least decadal time scales.

Chemical alteration of sediments on early stage of existing of hydrothermal systems in spreading zones of sedimented ridges (hydrothermal field “Dead Dog”, Middle Valley, Juan de Fuca Ridge) [PDF]
In sediments from Holes DSDP 858B, D, F, located near the active hot vent on the thermal field “Dead Dog” in the northern part of the Juan de Fuca Ridge, Middle Valley, a redistribution of chemical elements occurs as a result of solution-rock interaction.

Biodiversity and trophic ecology of hydrothermal vent fauna associated with tubeworm assemblages on the Juan de Fuca Ridge [PDF]
Hydrothermal vent sites along the Juan de Fuca Ridge in the north-east Pacific host dense populations of Ridgeia piscesae tubeworms that promote habitat heterogeneity and local diversity.
