Hydrate Ridge Overview

Location of the backbone cable and extension cables for Primary Node 1A-1C of the RSN along the Hydrate Ridge network and the CSN Endurance Array Oregon Line (Node 1C-1D). A full water column mooring with profiling capabilities will be located near Node 1A. RSN and CSN share the node at 500 m. The CSN at 500 and 80 m will host moorings connected to the cable through extension cables. RSN site-specific sensors (red box) are located ~ 10 km north of the Node 1B (Southern Hydrate Ridge) at the summit of southern Hydrate Ridge at a water depth of ~ 700 m.
