This dataset contains oceanographic data (CTD data, Oxygen data, ROV Navigation data). Kick'em Jenny is the most active volcano in the Antilles Volcanic Arc. Since its debut eruption in 1939, it has provided scientists with a rare opportunity to learn about the growth and development of submarine volcanoes into eventual islands. NOAA's Office of Ocean Exploration funded this mission to further investigate and evaluate the evolution of the volcano as well as its relationship to the natural environment surrounding the hydrothermal venting in the area. The mission was a collaborative effort among Professor John Shepherd (University of West Indies), Professor Haraldur Sigurdsson (University of Rhode Island (URI)), Professor Steve Carey (URI) and Dr. Doug Wilson (NOAA).
