| Summary | 1. Exploration of new sites and new areas within known sites 2. Sampling of corals and associated fauna for biodiversity and biogeography 3. Community sampling at seep and coral habitats 4. Sediment sampling at soft sediment sites for biogeochemistry and diversity 5. Collections of corals for live coral experiments 6. Water sampling for water chemistry and microbial diversity 7. Sediment, water, and faunal samples for eDNA work 8. Geological observations and sampling for geomorphology 9. Lander deployments | ||||||||
| Info derived | DNA sequences, geologic substrate, coral age dating, sediment provenance | ||||||||

| Water-column environmental variables and accompanying discrete CTD measurements collected offshore the U.S. Mid- and South Atlantic (ver. 2.0, July 2022) | CTD_SeaBird | Various water column variables, including salinity, dissolved inorganic nutrients, dissolved inorganic carbon, and radio-carbon isotopes were measured in samples collected using a Niskin-bottle rosette at selected depths from deepwater sites offshore the US Mid- and South Atlantic from September 2017 to April 2019. CTD (Conductivity Temperature Depth) data were also collected at each depth that a Niskin-bottle sample was collected and are presented along with the water sample data during the following five cruises: PC1704 (USGS field activity 2017-004-FA) in September 2017, ENG615 (USGS field activity 2018-024-FA) in June 2018, AT41 (USGS field activity 2018-042-FA) in August 2018, BMCC-2018 (USGS field activity 2018-053-FA) in October 2018, and RB1903 (USGS field activity 2019-620-FA) in April 2019. This data release supersedes version 1.0, published in March 2021 at https://doi.org/10.5066/P9V7ODDR.
