Discovery of a magma chamber and faults beneath a Mid-Atlantic Ridge hydrothermal field

TL;DR: It is suggested that this magma chamber beneath the slow-spreading Lucky Strike segment of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge provides the heat for the active hydrothermal vent field above it, and axial valley bounding faults that seem to penetrate down to the magMA chamber depth are observed, suggesting continuous interactions between tectonic and magmatic processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

An Automatic Kurtosis‐Based P ‐ and S ‐Phase Picker Designed for Local Seismic Networks

TL;DR: An automatic P ‐ and S ‐wave onset‐picking algorithm, using kurtosis‐derived characteristic functions (CF) and eigenvalue decompositions on three‐component seismic data, which resulted in more locations than manual picking, picking as many P onsets and twice as many S onsets as with manual picking or the STA/LTA algorithm.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identifying and Removing Tilt Noise from Low-Frequency (! 0.1 Hz) Seafloor Vertical Seismic Data

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that a seafloor seismic station can be reduced by subtracting the coherent signals derived from horizontal seismic observations associated with tilt noise, and pressure measurements related to infragravity waves.
Journal ArticleDOI

Infragravity waves in the deep ocean

TL;DR: In this article, a model based on the average energy in the short (wind driven and swell) wave band along the North Atlantic coast was constructed to predict the long wave band at a site in the Atlantic.

Infragravity waves: From driving mechanisms to impacts

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on the most common type of IG waves, those induced by the presence of groups in incident short waves, and three related mechanisms explain their generation: (1) the development, shoaling and release of waves bound to the short-wave group envelopes (2) the modulation by these envelopes of the location where short waves break, and (3) the merging of bores (breaking wave front, resembling to a hydraulic jump) inside the surfzone.
