Octopus feeding traces from the AURORA seamount, high Arctic
The Aurora hydrothermal field sits in the westernmost segment of the Gakkel Ridge within the Western Volcanic Zone which extends for 220 km from 7°W to 3°E. The Aurora field was first located associated with one such volcanic mound as part of the InterRidge two-icebreaker AMORE expedition in 2001, a...
