Two Mapped Guyots
Top row: The ship’s operating area within the Jarvis Island Exclusive Economic Zone. The image on the left is a map based on satellite altimetry data, which only detected one guyot, highlighted by a white box. However, high-resolution bathymetry of the same area, collected during this expedition, detected a second guyot seen on the map on the right. Rosette symbols denote CTD rosette system deployments, and sun symbols indicate sun photometer measurements. Bottom image: A three-dimensional perspective view of the two mapped guyots. Numbers in the depth bar represent meters below the sea surface.
