| Description | In order to restore mesophotic and deep benthic communities (MDBC) affected by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, accurate high-resolution bathymetric and habitat maps, as well as information on their abundance and distribution is needed. Only small fractions of the mesophotic and deepwater habitats of the Gulf of Mexico (GoM) have been surveyed. |
