Lau Basin-Tonga Trench Fledermaus Scene

This movie was created by SCRIPPS using Fledermaus software based on the Lau Basin-Tonga Trench scene, shows how 2- and 3-D datasets of various types and spatial scales can be integrated in a 3-D visual environment. It highlights the complementary nature of viewing an individual 2-D dataset alongside the integrated visualization. As the movie explores the spreading ridge, one can begin to understand how this graphical tool is beneficial in quickly viewing multiple datasets and subsequently choosing a specific location to focus future Ridge 2000 program experiments.
