From: Impact of remotely generated eddies on plume dispersion at abyssal mining sites in the Pacific

(a) Dissolved matter plume core tracks (colours, concentration in parts of unit), formed by neutral tracers released in period
(April 2013) at three different dates (red
,
,
) marked on inset surface elevation (ζ, m) graph. Mooring sites are labelled with M-1, M-2 and M-3. (b) Plume core tracks formed by neutral tracers released in period
from ‘calm’ sources (1,4,5) and two more energetic sites (2,3) adjacent to ‘hotspots’ (shown in 12-hour intervals). (c) Observed (
) and modelled (
) residual current vectors averaged over 12 hours at 20 mab at mooring site 1. High_Res_Fig. 4 (https://figshare.com/s/1cc75280276f0ead1508). Figure was plotted using MATLAB R2015b (http://www.mathworks.com/).
