I’m baaack, for another oceanographic expedition on mighty R/V Falkor. I say mighty, because her previous life was as a North Sea fisheries enforcement vessel and so she was initially designed for speed and sturdiness to survive the harsh conditions. At the beginning of our journey we were bashing through the trade seas and currents north of the equator on the way to our study site near Johnston Atoll. It was a bit of a rough ride, although we felt safe and secure in the belly of mighty Falkor, and the conditions steadily improved.</p> <p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20170427102830/http://blogs.agu.org/thefield/2017/01/16/back-for-more-beaming/" class="more">Read More <span class="more-arrow">>></span></a></p> <br class="clearfloat"/> </div> <div class="post entry" id="post-81456"> <p class="date"> 12 January 2017 </p> <h3 class="posttitle"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20170427102830/http://blogs.agu.org/thefield/2017/01/12/five-voices-pacific/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to Five Voices from the Pacific"> Five Voices from the Pacific </a></h3> <p>In this blog, the team reflect on this experience so far.</p> <p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20170427102830/http://blogs.agu.org/thefield/2017/01/12/five-voices-pacific/" class="more">Read More <span class="more-arrow">>></span></a></p> <br class="clearfloat"/> </div> <div class="post entry" id="post-81450"> <p class="date"> 11 January 2017 </p> <h3 class="posttitle"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20170427102830/http://blogs.agu.org/thefield/2017/01/11/the-deep-end/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to The Deep End"> The Deep End </a></h3> <p>The challenge lies in how satellites estimate where underwater volcanic mountains might be located.
