Off the coasts of Oregon, Washington, and Northern California lies the Cascadia Margin, an area where E/V Nautilus and other research vessels have mapped and found over 3,500 bubble plumes from methane seeps. A team arrives on Nautilus in days led by Dr. Tamara Baumberger and Susan Merle to study these environments never before seen with cameras.
Expedition
Cascadia Margin Seep Exploration
For two weeks, E/V Nautilus will return to the Cascadia Margin, a geologically active region located offshore of Washington, Oregon, and northern California, where we have mapped and explored many methane seeps and cold seeps.
