Integrated studies sites [ISS]

Mission Statement

Ridge 2000’s Integrated Studies aim to develop focused, quantitative, whole-system models through coordinated, integrated, and interdisciplinary experiments at a small number of sites. More information »

Three Integrated Studies Sites have been selected, and an Implementation Plan produced for each:

     8–11°N on the East Pacific Rise

     Endeavour Segment of the Juan de Fuca Ridge

     Lau Basin

Directly relevant analog, modeling, or experimental studies can also be partly or entirely performed onshore or at another location. See the Ridge 2000 Science Plan for program needs for these types of studies.

Online reference database

We have an online reference database for each of the integrated study sites. You can view a list of references and also a detailed citation for each reference. Visit the ISS reference database.

Data management

Data collected under Ridge 2000 funding can be accessed via the Ridge 2000 Data Portal.
