The
New
Millennium
Observatory
(NeMO)
is
a
seafloor
observatory
off
the
coast
of
Oregon,
which
studies
the
relationships
between
submarine
volcanic
events
and
the
chemistry
and
distribution
of
hydrothermal
vents
and
the
biologic
communities
that
depend
on
them.
The
research
activities
at
NeMO
provide
an
extraordinary
educational
opportunity,
both
from
the
daily
reports
from

analyzed
during
more
than
60,000
stream
visits
using
relatively

Sedimentary
Rocks:
Carbonate
Rocks
is
a
course
handout
meant
to
accompany
the
discussion
of
chemical
and
biochemical
sedimentary
rocks.
Rock
composition
is
broken
into
the
main
categories
of
limestone
and
dolostone.
Depositional
conditions
are
discussed,
including
the
topics
of
coral
reefs,
plankton,
and
carbonate
compensation

This
Why
Files
article
investigates
trading,
sources,
and
use
of
metal
by
Arctic
peoples.
Until
recently,
metal
was
seldom
found
at
Arctic
archeological
digs.
In
1994,
a
group
of
scientists
found
many
iron
and
copper
objects
by
simply
using
a
metal
detector.
By
analyzing
isotopes,
scientists
were
able
to
show
that
both
iron
and
copper
came
from
few
sources
that
were
traded
widely.
