| Purpose | Sustainable Seas Expedition - multidisciplinary cruise with FSU, NOAA and National Geographic. USGS objective is sediment sampling to ground truth previously collected sidescan data and make observations of benthic habitats using Deep Worker one-person submarines with video cameras. | ||||||||
| Location | Yellowtail Reef, Pinnacles, Madison-Swanson Reserve, Steamboat Lumps Reserve, Florida, northeast Gulf of Mexico, United States, North America, North Atlantic; | ||||||||
| Summary | Sediment samples are being analyzed for texture and carbonate content in the USGS/Woods Hole sediment lab. Sediment samples were obtained mainly from Yellowtail Reef. Did not do intended ROV work due to operational problems. Sediment samples; Videos (with National Geographic). | ||||||||
| Comments | Original Center People field contained: Kathy Scanlon (geology, sediment sampling), Doug Weaver (biology). Project = Sustainable Seas Expedition 2001, Sustainable Seas Expedition 2001 | ||||||||
