Edited Alvin Navigation Data acquired during Atlantis expedition AT15-14 (2006)

This data set was acquired with a Navigation system on the HOV Alvin during Atlantis expedition AT15-14 conducted in 2006 (Chief Scientist: Dr. James Ledwell; Investigator(s): Dr. Vicki Ferrini). These data files are of Text File (ASCII) format and include Navigation data and were processed after data collection. Data were acquired as part of the project(s): Larval Dispersal Along the Deep East Pacific Rise (LADDER-2), Collaborative Research: Oceanographic and Topographic Influences on Dispersal of Hydrothermal Vent Species, Development and colonization processes in Alvinella pompejana, Hydrothermal Vent Meiobenthos, Potential of hydrothermal plumes as a source of dissolved iron (Fe) to the deep ocean and a sink of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), Chemical Characterizations of Vent Habitats, Development, Growth and Cell Kinetic Studies in Riftia Pachyptila, and Preliminary Deployment of Magnetic Collectors for Examination of Vent Particle Dispersal, and funding was provided by NSF grant(s): OCE04-24953.

本数据集采集自2006年执行的亚特兰蒂斯号（Atlantis）科考航次AT15-14，由搭载于阿尔文号载人深潜器（Human Occupied Vehicle，HOV Alvin）上的导航系统获取。本次航次首席科学家为詹姆斯·莱德韦尔（James Ledwell）博士，科考参与人员为维基·费里尼（Vicki Ferrini）博士。本数据集包含导航数据，数据文件采用纯文本（ASCII）格式，且已在数据采集完成后完成预处理。本数据隶属于以下多项研究项目：沿东太平洋海隆深水区幼虫扩散研究（Larval Dispersal Along the Deep East Pacific Rise，LADDER-2）、合作研究项目：海洋学与地形对热液喷口物种扩散的影响、阿尔文虫（Alvinella pompejana）的发育与定殖过程研究、热液喷口小型底栖生物研究、热液羽流作为深海溶解铁（Fe）源与溶解有机碳（DOC）汇的潜力研究、喷口生境化学特征分析、巨管虫（Riftia pachyptila）的发育、生长及细胞动力学研究，以及用于检测喷口颗粒扩散的磁性收集器初步部署研究。本研究获得美国国家科学基金会（National Science Foundation，NSF）项目OCE04-24953的经费支持。
