Cruise Objective:   SEABEAM/MAGNETICS SURVEY

Science Activities: Collect 100% coverage with multibeam bathymetry data in
                    two boxes extending respectively WSW and ESE from 2'0N,
                    101'0W near the Galapagos triple junction. Box 1 (25 nm
                    x 90 nm) is focused on Dietz Deep Rift, the southern
                    boundary of the rotating Galapagos microplate. Box 2*
                    (30 nm x 120 nm) is focused on the predicted southern
                    trace of multiple jumping rifts, similar to those
                    observed to the north of the Cocos-Nazca Rift. Collect
                    magnetic field data along the multibeam tracks and a few
                    long tracks that run perpendicular to the axis of Dietz
                    Deep Rift.

Operations Area:    Galapagos Triple Junction
                    2 N, 101 W
