V52B: New Insights into Oceanic Spreading Centers from Seafloor Observatories

Oceanic Spreading Centers (OSC) are complex settings in which geological, hydrothermal, biological and oceanographic processes all interact. The challenges of understanding these systems and of capturing the volcanic and tectonic events responsible for forming the ocean crust has led to the establishment of longterm multidisciplinary seafloor observatories and miscellaneous deep-sea experiments. The resulting datasets require exploration, integration, and modeling at a level that cumulatively must transcend traditional disciplinary boundaries. The goal of this session is to bring together the broad research community working on OSC to better understand 1) magma supply, storage and emplacement 2) the dynamic hydrothermal system that link the geosphere to the ocean and 3) the associated seafloor ecosystems We also encourage submissions presenting new advances in deep-sea technologies involved in OSC experiments.

AGU is dedicated to the fututre of Eath and space sciences, and to communicating our science’s ability to benefit humanity. We achieve these goals through publishing scientific journals and other technical publications, sponsoring scientific meetings, supporting education and outreach programs designed to increase public understanding of and support for our science, and a variety of other activities. AGU Fall Meeting is the highlight of the year for many Earth and space scientists. It it is also one of the largest gatherings of science journalists.
