This document provides information on research conducted on hydrothermal plumes in the Arctic Ocean, specifically at the Aurora vent site on the Gakkel Ridge. The researchers aimed to estimate the long-term flux of the plume, understand temporal changes in the hydrothermal system, and determine the connection between seismic events and perturbations in the water column. Various instruments and techniques were used to collect data on temperature, turbidity, redox potential, and geochemical anomalies. The research also explored other unknown sites to gain insights into venting at the seafloor. The findings confirmed ongoing hydrothermal activity at the Aurora and Lucky B sites, although the origin of the plume signals and their relationship to known vent sites remains unclear. The data collected will be archived and published according to international standards. The expedition was supported by the DFG Cluster of Excellence "The Ocean in the Earth System."
