$Landslide Scar | SOI Divestream 933 Part 3 Dive Description: This ROV dive will visually inspect and sample the large landslide scar surveyed during AUV dive E00017 on the southern flank of the Doldrums Transform. The dive will run from the base of the slope to the upper part of the scar, crossing the full landslide morphology from the lower depositional/scarp-base area, across the main scarp face, and up to the scar crest and adjacent upper-slope terrain. The main objective is to determine whether the landslide scar exposes basement, faulted or fractured hard substrate, sediment-basement contacts, altered rocks, mineral staining, hydrothermal or authigenic crusts, microbial material, unusual faunal aggregations, or active/diffuse fluid-flow indicators. The AUV plan for E00017 identified the western scarp of the large scar as a target for mapping exposed basement, fault planes, fractures, benches, terraces, and possible fluid-flow pathways.
