Gorda Ridge presents a primarily technical summary of recent
advances in seafloor research related to mineral exploration of the
only seafloor spreading center within the United States' Exclusive
Economic Zone (EEZ). Spreading centers are known to be the locus of
hydrothermal activity and to host mineral deposits of hydrothermal
origin. The book includes sections on the results of mineral
exploration on Gorda Ridge, the newest technologies for mineral
exploration and sampling on the seafloor, and the evolving field of
hydrothermal vent biology and ecology. What makes the book unique
is that it is: 1) a site book, 2) a truly multidisciplinary
summation of the state of the art in complementary areas of deep
ocean geology and biology, and 3) a marker in the evolution of
federal-state relations concerning ocean development.
