Description
The hydrothermal system of the Vailulu'u volcano that is located to the East of Ta'u island in the Samoan Islands has been investigated by measuring standard CTD and nephelometry onboard the US Coast Guard Polar Star. Vailulu'u marks the current location of the Samoan hotspot. This Microsoft Excel file contains the CTDN data in three Excel spreadsheets with useful plotting utilities to display the CTDN data at any scale. SAM04 is a single hydrocast inside the crater close to a topographic low in the crater floor in the SW part of the crater.
