Outline
• Science context• NEPTUNE – past, present, future• Power – Overview, Organization, Finances• The Concept Design Review (CoDR)• The Preliminary Design Review (PDR)
Many globally significant planetary phenomena operate at or below the scale of a tectonic plate
Many globally significant planetary phenomena operate at or below the scale of a tectonic plate
Premise 1.Premise 1.
Thorough 4-D examination of at least one plate/mesoscale system will generate new insights into all such systems.

NEPTUNENEPTUNE
Science Topics• Ridge crest processes - volcanism, microbiology• Seafloor hydrogeology and biogeochemistry• Long-term ecological studies• Water column physics / chemistry / biology• Fisheries• Seismology and geodynamics • Subduction zone gas releases; methane
clathrates• Sediment flux from the continents to the deep
sea
NEPTUNE Benefits to ResearchNEPTUNE Benefits to Research
New approaches lead to new discoveries Limits to life / Origin of life Ocean productivity in an area of strong gradients Ecology and population dynamics of marine
mammals and fish stocks Dynamics of an entire lithospheric plate Oceanic behavior of greenhouse gases Integrated physics/chemistry/biology and models Enhanced education and public awareness of
research

Science PlanningNEPTUNE PNW Workshop
23-24 April 2003
Recommendations:
Cover shelf to abyss
Coarse array of basic sensors integral part
Begin sensor array designs now
Cost models
Data management key
Clarify NSF funding plan
PNW
• Tectonic plate scale• Lots of power (100 kW)• Bandwidth (Gbits/sec)• Real-time data return & control• Robust design; high reliability• Available for 20 - 30 years
