NEPTUNE Canada

Main Endeavour vent field (planned)

• digital still camera
• water sampler
• temperature-resistivity probe
• tempo-mini, which will integrate the following instruments on a single platform:
  • video camera with LED lights and anti-biofouling devices
  • temperature probes
  • Aanderaa optode oxygen sensor
  • CHEMINI (total Fe) system
• Cabled Observatory Imaging Sonar System (COVIS)

Mothra hydrothermal vent field (planned)

• microbial incubator
• temperature-resistivity probe

Regional circulation moorings (planned)

Four regional circulation moorings will be installed, each including:

• ADCP (75 kHz)
• aquadopp current sensor (2 MHz)
• CTD

A bottom pressure recorder, part of the West Coast "tsunami-meter" experiment, will also be positioned near the southeast regional circulation mooring.

Seismicity study site (planned)

• broadband seismometer (360s - 50Hz)
• current meter
• differential pressure sensor
• strong motion accelerometer

Seismometer network (planned)

In addition to this seismicity study site, seismometers will be installed across the Endeavour study area:

Short-period seismometer locations

• main Endeavour vent field
• midway between the northern pair of regional circulation moorings

Standard seismometer locations

• Mothra vent field
• approximately 500m east of the node

Tsunami detection

• northwest bottom pressure recorder (BPR)
• south BPR
• northeast BPR

ODP 1027 Instrument Platform

• broadband seismometer (360s - 50 Hz)
• Conductivity Temperature Depth (CTD) gauge

ODP Borehole 1026B

• CORK pressure sensor
• CORK temperature sensor

ODP Borehole 1027 (planned)

• CORK pressure sensor

• controlled source electromagnetic (CSEM) system
• broadband seismometer
• bottom pressure recorder (BPR)
• multibeam sonar
