Objective

The HYDROMOMAR16 cruise's objective was to continuously monitor the seismicity of the mid-Atlantic ridge around the MoMAR zone. Thus, five autonomous hydrophones were retrieved and redeployed in the SOFAR Channel to record this seismicity. The monitoring began in August 2012. With the data recorded to date, we have a seismological catalogue covering 6 years of continuous recordings. The cruise received financial support from INSU and the EMSO-France programme.
