Paper Number: OTC-35061-MS
... Abstract On top of the abyssal plains of the Clarion-Clipperton Zone (CCZ) in the Pacific Ocean lie trillions of polymetallic nodules that contain many of the metals needed for transitioning to a low carbon future. In 2021, the pre-protype seafloor nodule collector ‘Patania II’ performed...

.... Calibrations performed to estimate these cone factors are typically done independently from each other and render constant values for each cone factor, which are independent of vertical effective stress and depth below seafloor. This leads to constant cone factors which may be incompatible within...
