Juan de Fuca subduction zone from a mixture of tomography and waveform modeling [PDF]
, 2012 Seismic tomography images of the upper mantle structures beneath the Pacific Northwestern United States display a maze of high-velocity anomalies, many of which produce distorted waveforms evident in the USArray observations indicative of the Juan de ...

Hydrothermal Chimney Distribution on the Endeavour Segment, Juan de Fuca Ridge
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020 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 ...

Sea-floor tectonics and submarine hydrothermal systems [PDF]
, 2005 The discovery of metal-depositing hot springs on the sea floor, and especially their link to chemosynthetic life, was among the most compelling and significant scientific advances of the twentieth century. More than 300 sites of hydrothermal activity and

Similar Microbial Communities Found on Two Distant Seafloor Basalts. [PDF]
, 2015 The oceanic crust forms two thirds of the Earth's surface and hosts a large phylogenetic and functional diversity of microorganisms. While advances have been made in the sedimentary realm, our understanding of the igneous rock portion as a microbial ...

Cataclysmic hydrothermal venting on the Juan de Fuca Ridge [PDF]
Nature, 1987 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.

The mechanism of tidal triggering of earthquakes at mid-ocean ridges
Nature Communications, 2019 Tidal triggering of earthquakes at Axial Volcano on the Juan de Fuca ridge is shown to be driven by tidally induced magma chamber inflation. Fitting the data to theory requires that the frictional parameter A be much smaller than laboratory measurements ...
