Pacific Ring of Fire Expedition

Pacific Ring of Fire Expedition. The experiment to observe the change in phase of the bubbles collected at Champagne vent site. What began as just solid carbon dioxide hydrate (clathrate) and water on the seafloor , at this depth (300 m) is converting to gaseous carbon dioxide and liquid water - due to the decrease in pressure as the submersible ascends.
