(Table 1) Heat flow measurements in the Black Sea

New data show that the thermal field is definitely related to the geologic structure at depth and to other geophysical fields. Low heat-flow values along reliably established subsurface faults suggest absence of a heated zone of the earth's crust and upper mantle in these regions.

Autonomous recording current meter measurements at the Håkon Mosby mud volcano (LOOME)

The deployment of LOOME was performed by lowering the LOOME frame by winch, followed by positioning of the surface sensors across the most active site by ROV. The frame was placed on an inactive slab of hydrates, eastwards and adjacent to the hot spot. To the frame autonomous recording current meter was mounted, recording physical oceanography variables approximately two to three meter above the seafloor.
