Cruise AT15-59, Multicore 1. Noted in field book as date 2010-01-06. Details from BCO-DMO log and Levin lab. Date: 2010-01-07. GMT: 0331 (=local time 2131 on 2010-01-06; presumably recovered same day). Lat, lon: 8.9325260, -84.1491462 = 08 55.95156' N, 84 8.94877' W. Depth: 995 m. Notes: "Control Sed. On Mound 12 (NW)". C. Seid and L. Levin discussion, 2022-04-09: longitude should probably be 84 18.94877' W (-84.315813) rather than 84 8.94877' W (-84.1491462). Verbatim lat, lon would be 17.94 km due east of Mound 12 (e.g. 8.9308, -84.3125 from AD4588), also 17.21 km from Mound 11 (e.g. 8.9208, -84.3054 from AD4504). Adjusted lat, lon (8.9325260, -84.315813) would be 0.41 km NW of Mound 12 as expected, consistent with the other multicores being <1 km away from the seeps.
