The deep trench, shallow to mid-depth volcanic arc, and mid-depth to deep spreading back-arc, provide a wide variety of habitats for research. Of these, more than 600 km of the back-arc has remained relatively unexplored. This December, the science team will <a href=\"https:\/\/schmidtocean.org\/cruise\/hydrothermal-hunt-at-mariana\/\">follow up from a discovery cruise that occurred on Falkor last winter<\/a>. During the previous visit, three new hydrothermal vents were discovered; one of them being among the deepest vents in the world. \u00a0This time, the team will return with our brand-new 4,500 m capable <a href=\"https:\/\/schmidtocean.org\/technology\/robotic-platforms\/4500-m-remotely-operated-vehicle-rov\/\">ROV SuBastian<\/a> to explore the life and activity at the vent sites.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Click here to join us on the #HydrothermalHunt livestream!
