Description:
This document contains project instructions for EX-18-06. Operations for this cruise will be

conducted 24 hours/day and consist of daily remotely operated vehicle (ROV), CTD

operations, overnight mapping, and full shore-based participation via telepresence. The

expedition will commence on June 6, 2018 in Charleston, South Carolina (FLETC-

Charleston Pier Papa) and conclude on June 27, 2018 in Norfolk, Virginia (Marine

Operations Center-Atlantic). Operations will include the use of the ship’s deep water

mapping systems (Kongsberg EM302 multibeam sonar, EK60 split-beam fisheries sonars,

Knudsen 3260 chirp sub-bottom profiler sonar, and Teledyne Acoustic Doppler Current

Profiler), XBTs in support of multibeam sonar mapping operations, CTD casts, OER’s two-

body ROV Deep Discoverer and Seirios, and the ship’s high-bandwidth satellite connection

for continuous real-time ship-to-shore communications. Operations are planned

throughout the South Atlantic Bight, offshore Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North

Carolina, and Virginia.
