What is your role in the HDYLAKE project?
I am a first year PhD student in the MIT/WHOI Joint Program and I will be studying background seismic activity on the Yellow Stone lake floor. Currently my job is to assist Tim Kane from the WHOI OBS group in deploying and recovering the seismic instruments deployed on the lake. The data from these instruments will be the basis for one of the research projects required for the completion of my PhD. Read More →

What is your role in the HDYLAKE project?
I am a co-Principal Invesitgator on the project and am a hydrothermal geochemist with long experience working on Yellowstone hot spring fluids and deposits, especially on the floor of Yellowstone Lake. I am working on pore fluids, sediment composition, and hydrothermal alteration in gravity cores and piston cores, and I am part of the team sampling sublacustrine hot springs by ROV. I will be conducting stable isotope (H, C, O, S) analyses and geochemical reaction modeling on hydrothermal fluids and hydrothermal deposits. Read More →

What is your role in the HDYLAKE project?
My role in this project is to help characterize the thermal regime of the Deep Hole region, which is a lake-bottom system of hydrothermal vents just east of Stevenson Island in Yellowstone Lake. We are deploying lake-bottom heatflow-measuring ‘blankets’ and are also measuring the thermal conductivity of the lake sediments for the development of thermal models.
