Ziel der Reise / Objectives of Cruise:
The main purpose of cruis M81/2A was to use an interdisciplinary approach combining structural geology, geodynamics, magnetics, volcanology, petrology, magmatic geochemistry and geochronology to obtain new insights into the controversially discussed origin and geodynamic evolution of the Caribbean Large Igneous Province (CLIP) and the Caribbean Plate. On Leg 2A ROV sampling was conducted on the Beata Rise to obtain in situ samples from stratigraphic sequences. Magnetic surveys were carried out to help constrain the age and evolution of the Caribbean and to assess if the Caribbean Plate formed between the Americas or originated in the Pacific. Simrad EM120 and Parasound were used to select sampling stations and to assess the structural geology of the region.
