  • 38. Effect of Axial Magma Chambers Beneath Spreading Centers on the Compositions of Basaltic Rocks
    38. EFFECT OF AXIAL MAGMA CHAMBERS BENEATH SPREADING CENTERS ON THE COMPOSITIONS OF BASALTIC ROCKS James H. Natland, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, La Jolla, California ABSTRACT Ferrobasalts are among a range of basalt types erupted over large, shallow, axial magma chambers beneath the East Pacific Rise crest near 9°N, and the Galapagos Rift near 86°W. Geological and geo- chemical evidence indicates that they evolve in small, isolated magma bodies either in conduit systems over the chambers, or in the solidify- ing walls of the magma chamber flanks away from the loci of fissure eruptions. The chambers act mainly as buffers in which efficient mix- ing ensures that a uniform average, moderately fractionated parent is supplied to the range of magma types erupted at the sea floor. For- mation of ferrobasalts in isolated magma bodies prevents them from mixing directly with primitive olivine tholeiite supplied to the base of the East Pacific Rise magma chamber at 9°N. Rises with abundant ferrobasalts may have magma chambers with broad, flat tops over which eruptions occur in wide, probably struc- turally unstable rift zones. Rises without ferrobasalts may have magma chambers with tapered tops which persistently constrain eruptions to narrow fissure zones, preventing formation of isolated shallow magma bodies where ferrobasalts can evolve. Formation of a flat-topped, rather than a tapered, magma chamber may reflect a high rate of magma supply relative to spreading rate. Steady-state compositions can be approached in magma cham- bers, probably approximating the least-fractionated typical lavas erupted above them. On this basis, the bulk magma composition in the chamber beneath the Galapagos Rift has become more iron-rich through time, a consequence of magma migration eastward down the rift as it shoaled to the west under the influence of the Galapagos Island hot spot.

    SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN FRONTIERS PROGRAM #1503 "Going Deep" AIRDATE: February 2, 2005 ALAN ALDA Hello and welcome to Scientific American Frontiers. I'm Alan Alda. It's said that the oceans, which cover more than two thirds of the earth's surface, are less familiar to us than the surface of the moon. If you consider the volume of the oceans, it's actually more than ninety percent of the habitable part of the earth that we don't know too much about. The main reason for our relative ignorance is simply that the deep ocean is an absolutely forbidding environment. It's pitch dark, extremely cold and with pressures that are like having a 3,000-foot column of lead pressing down on every square inch -- which does sound pretty uncomfortable. In this program we're going to see how people finally made it to the ocean floor, and we'll find out about the scientific revolutions they brought back with them. We're going to go diving in the Alvin, the little submarine that did so much of the work. And we're going to glimpse the future, as Alvin's successor takes shape in a small seaside town on Cape Cod. That's coming up in tonight's episode, Going Deep. INTO THE DEEP ALAN ALDA (NARRATION) Woods Hole, Massachusetts. It's one of the picturesque seaside towns that draw the tourists to Cape Cod each year. But few seaside towns have what Woods Hole has. For 70 years it's been home to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution — an organization that does nothing but study the world's oceans.

  • Shark Mitigation and Deterrent Measures Submission 64
    The Efficacy and Regulation of Shark Mitigation and Deterrent Measures Submission to: Senate Environment and Communications References Committee by Peter Stephenson BSc., ADAS 2815.3, Master Class V February 2017 As a commercial diver and fisherman with over 35 years of diverse experience I write this submission due to my ever-increasing concerns about policies governing management of and research into shark populations. I began snorkelling at the age of 7 and was a keen spear fisherman and surfer for decades although I am currently no longer active in these sports. (partly due to increasing negative shark incidents) I have a BSc. In marine science from Flinders University and have completed a number of years of marine research. Over more than four decades I have spent tens of thousands of hours observing and studying the marine environment. In recent years, particularly after my friends Peter Clarkson and Greg Pickering were attacked by white sharks, I have been researching shark attacks, shark behaviour and the possible factors influencing negative shark/ human interactions. I have also witnessed aggressive shark behaviour first hand but have luckily escaped serious injury…. so far. I currently work as an abalone diver in the South Australian Central Zone Abalone Fishery. THIS IS A MAJOR WORKPLACE SAFETY ISSUE FOR ME! THE BAITING AND HARASSMENT OF SHARKS FOR TOURISM AND SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH Despite legislation deeming the berleying, baiting, approach and harassment of white sharks illegal, governments grant exemptions and licences to tourism operators and scientists to conduct these activities. Despite years of research and observation, the level of conditioning of sharks by repeated berleying and baiting is still poorly understood and documented.

However, most direct observations and samplings of seep sites have been concentrated above water depths of approximately 3000 ft (1000 m) because of the scarcity of deep diving manned submersibles. In the summer of 2006, Minerals Management Service (MMS) and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Admini- stration (NOAA) supported 24 days of DSV Alvin dives on the deep continental slope. Site selection for these dives was accomplished through surface reflectivity analysis of the MMS slope-wide 3D seismic database followed by a photo reconnaissance cruise. From 80 potential sites, 20 were studied by photo reconnaissance from which 10 sites were selected for Alvin dives.
