The plume is 250 meters below the surface of the water. A reduction in oxygen, higher particulate numbers, and reduced chemical species such as methane defined the plume.en-USMarine chemical ecology--South Pacific Ocean--Kermadec arcChemosynthesisVolcanic plumes--Kermadec Arc--Rumble IIIChemical dynamics based on methane, light backscatter, and redox potential of hydrothermal plumes at Rumble III, Kermadec arc, New ZealandOther
