earthquake swarms on Juan de Fuca plate and the Northern Gorda Ridge,
offshore Oregon.
Sounds of the Southern Ocean
Nov. 20-Dec. 13, 2006 -First
attempt of deep-water ROV survey of hydrothermal vents and ecosystems
in Antarctica. Hydrophones record
sounds generated by moving ice sheets, undersea earthquakes and volcanoes;
vocalizations from large baleen whales.

Tectonic
Plates Slowly Moving
Vents scientists have discovered that the seafloor
off the Pacific Northwest is a jumping kind of place, with thousands
of small, swarming earthquakes and tectonic plates that are slowly rearranging
themselves. The findings could mean that a "Big One" earthquake
may not be as severe...Science
