Abstract

Cruise POS484 was two fold. The second part was dedicated to seismic investigations of the Palinuro volcanic complex. Drilling had proven that the western segment of Palinuro hosts barite and massive sulfides distributed in layers of a few centimeters up to several meters thickness. During four days working time the western segment of Palinuro was investigated with 2D multichannel seismic and OBS observations for the first time. Four additional deep towed streamer profiles were dedicated to the high resolution imaging of the NE cone in the western segment where barite and sulfides had been found. Multibeam bathymetry will add to the existing mid resolution seafloor database.
