| To better understand the recent motion of the Pacific plate relative to the Rivera plate and to better define the limitations of the existing Rivera-Pacific plate motion models for accurately predicting this motion, total-field magnetic data, multibeam bathymetric data and sidescan sonar images were collected during the BART and FAMEX campaigns of the N/O L'Atalante conducted in April and May 2002 in the area surrounding the Moctezuma Spreading Segment of the East Pacific Rise, located offshore of Manzanillo, Mexico, at 106 degrees 16'W, between 17.8 degrees N and 18.5 degrees N. Among the main results are: (1) the principle transform displacement zone of the Rivera Transform is narrow and well defined east of 107 degrees 15'W and these azimuths should be... |

| Seapso V cruise was conducted in January 1986. It started on the 13th from Nuku'Alfa (Kingdom of Tonga) and ended in Papeete (French-Polynesia) on the 28th. The main objectives of this cruise were to gather new data on two well defined problems in order to: 1-understand the tectonic processes of the subduction of an aseismic ridge (the Louisville ridge) and 2-Test of a unique method of detecting, locating and evaluating uncharted seamounts by analysis of Seasat satellite altimetric data. |
