New hydrothermal vents discovered as 'South Pacific Odyssey' research begins

e visualized as a series of expanding bands around a volcanically active region.

The National Science Foundation is funding the Lau Basin research in 2004 and 2005, Fisher said. As the Lau Basin also is being studied by such countries as Japan, Australia, and France, Fisher said he hopes more scientists will hop onboard and get into the Lau Basin action. "We are committed to following up with additional research expeditions in following years. Sharing the research costs internationally will enable us to better understand this complex system and will help us to achieve our goals sooner rather than later," he said.
