| After the four years of development of the modern maximum depth submersible, JAMSTEC has successfully completed the training dives of "SHINKAI 6500", a new manned submersible whose maximum operating depth is 6,500 meters, from June to October in this year. "SHINKAI 6500" was constructed by Kobe Shipyard and Machinary Works of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. (MHI) and marked 6,465m and 6,527m dives in the Japan Trench during the sea trials with the support "YOKOSUKA" (built by Kawasaki Heavy Industries Ltd.) in August 1989. This paper presents the results of the sea trials, training dives and the features of "SHINKAI 6500" with her supporting technologies. |

| The JAMSTEC/Deep Tow Camera System conducts pre-site-surveys for the manned submersible "SHINKAI 2000". The vehicle is towed by double armored coaxial cable (RG-8/U) of 4500 m length. The color composite video signal is converted to an FM signal with central frequency of 6.15 MHz because it is very difficult to compensate completely for the transmission loss of video frequency through the coaxial cable. The data from the CTD sensors and the altimeter are displayed with date and time on the monitor screen in real time. Temperature data has proved very important in finding hydrothermal anomaly phenomena. Two years ago, our research group found an active chimney at North Fiji Basin during cooperative cruise between France and Japan. Last year, we deployed... |
