Introduction
In 1977, hydrothermal vents were first directly observed on the ocean floor along the Galapagos Ridge (Corliss et al., 1979). Additional active hydrothermal fields were discovered along spreading centers and back-arc basins in the Pacific and along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (see Tunnicliffe, 1992, for a review). In 1986, the first two hydrothermal vent sites on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (TAG Site and Snake Pit Site, Rona et al., 1986) were visited with the deep submergence vehicle (DSV) Alvin. Two more active vent fields (Lucky Strike Site and Broken Spur Site) were first visited with DSV Alvin during R/V Atlantis H cruise 129 in the early summer of 1993. ...
