Description:

"The objectives of the expedition were to survey, sample, and map deep-sea coral ecosystems in the eastern Gulf of Mexico and South Atlantic Bight between ~200-1000 m depths, focusing on priority areas identified by the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council (GMFMC) and the South Atlantic Fishery Management Council (SAFMC). Specifically, this expedition sought to: (1) conduct benthic surveys using a deep-water remotely operated vehicle (ROV) in areas that have been proposed for the establishment of new habitat areas of particular concern (HAPC) on the West Florida slope; (2) collect biological specimens of deep-sea corals, sponges and their associated taxa using the manipulator arm of the ROV; (3) collect multibeam bathymetry and backscatter data in areas that have not yet been mapped at a high resolution, focusing on areas of the West Florida slope and peripheries of existing coral HAPCs in the South Atlantic Bight; (4) collect water samples and CTD data to support ongoing studies on seawater carbonate chemistry; and (5) opportunistically collect water column acoustic data to characterize the relative abundance of pelagic fishes of the region"--Expedition objectives.
