Description: 
If known, the name of the vent site from which the sample was collected. This generally corresponds to the InterRidge Vents Database ver 3.4 term "Vent Sites" https://vents-data.interridge.org/about_the_database. These may be associated with controlled vocabularies for Feature_ID Vent in MGDS. In some cases, original publications listed site markers that are not official vent sites in the InterRidge Vent Database, in which case the reported site marker rather than the controlled vent site ID was recorded in this field. Missing data identifier NR (not reported in original publication)
