1. The aim of this study is to revise the abyssal ophiuroids of the North Atlantic portraying the species likely to occur within this area so as to facilitate identification by the non specialist.
2. This great plate - adorned with a few "hot spots", where plumes of magma have spurted to the surface randomly to form such agglomerations of islands as the Hawaiian chain, the Marquesas, the Tuamotos, the Tubuais and that tiny British possession the Pitcairn group - is almost universally deep, has a floor covered with siliceous oozes and red clays and is dotted with millions of volcanic abyssal hills discovered by the trailing of arrays of echo-sounders.
3. From the shelf edge the continental slope descends steeply to an abyssal plain, partitioned into deep Atlantic, Indian and Pacific ocean basins by submarine ridges and platforms (Figure 5.4).
4. Histogram illustrates published Os values for Kaapvaal mantle xenoliths (solid), mid-ocean ridges basalts and abyssal peridotites (dotted), Gorgona Island komatiites (cross-hatched) and ocean island basalts (open).
5. The abyssal ooze wasn't exactly like mud at the bottom of an ocean.
6. So the area is taken to be that south of the Shetland-Iceland-Greenland ridges as far as Cap Blanc in the eastern Atlantic and the Demerara Abyssal Plain in the west.
7. Mostly between 3000 and 5000 m deep, the sea-bed falls to over 8000 m in an abyssal trench east of the South Sandwich Islands.
8. Eels are not thought to go down to the abyssal depths of the Atlantic where they could get such indications from the sea floor.
9. Fields for MORB (largely based on abyssal peridotite data), OIB and lithospheric peridotites are illustrated to emphasize the likely sub-lithospheric and lithospheric endmembers, respectively; thus, although lithospheric peridotites extend to positive Nd values, we illustrate a range that is consistent with the required low- Nd endmember.
10. The initial Os isotope ratios of the picrite basalts lie within the range recorded for oceanic island basalts (OIB), mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORB) and abyssal peridotites (Fig. 1).
11. They can live in hot springs, or can be dredged from the deepest abyssal depths of the ocean; the latter are grotesque gargoyles that seem to belong in the paintings of Heironymus Bosch.
12. Many fish, squid, octopuses, comb-jellies and jellyfish ensure that the abyssal depths are never completely dark by filling them with the sparkle and shimmer of animal light.
13. At greater depths, the only light piercing the abyssal gloom is a narrow band of blue.
