This project will study melt variations through the lower crust and Moho of the 9 degree north segment of the East Pacific Rise using 24 seafloor compliance measurements. The goals are to determine the variation of melt within the crust and upper mantle along a fast spreading ridge, to determine the scales of the variation and whether these variations correlate to morphological variations.

该项目将通过24次海底依从性测量，研究东太平洋隆起北段9度的下地壳和莫霍区的融化变化。目标是确定沿快速扩张脊的地壳和上地幔内的熔融变化，确定变化的规模以及这些变化是否与形态变化有关。
