The Medusa-like head of a programmable water sampler is prepared for deployment. The sampler, which is made by McLane Research Laboratories of East Falmouth, Mass., can collect up to 48 half-liter samples of water at timed intervals. It can withstand pressures to 5500 meters and can remain on station for up to 18 months. On a recent cruise to the axial seamounts on the Juan de Fuca Ridge, researcher Dave Butterfield of NOAA and the University of Washington recovered one sampler that had been deployed a year earlier, and set out another sampler that will collect samples over the coming year in an ongoing study of recent volcanic and hydrothermal vent activity.
