This project will adapt a sonar system for acoustic imaging of hydrothermal flow regimes for use on the ROV Jason. The sonar system wil be used to image, map and quantitatively measure hydrothermal plumes and diffuse flow over a range of spatial and temporal scales on the main Endeavor vent field on the Juan de Fuca Ridge. Advanced computer visualization and analytical methods will be used to identify, extract and measure paramentes of plumes and diffuse flow to determine mixing and dispersal behavior of these flow regimes.

该项目将改装一个声纳系统，用于热液流动状况的声学成像，供“Jason”号使用。 该声纳系统将用于对胡安·德富卡海脊主要奋进喷口区域的热液羽流和扩散流进行成像、绘图和定量测量。 先进的计算机可视化和分析方法将用于识别，提取和测量羽流和扩散流的参数，以确定这些流态的混合和扩散行为。
