Description:

The Mariana Archipelago consists of 15 islands, including Guam and Saipan, and numerous small banks, seamounts, and pinnacles. There are a number of charts published by the Defense Mapping Agency (DMA) which provide various degrees of bathymetric detail for the Archipelago (Table 1). Under the direction of the Resource Assessment Investigation of the Mariana Archipelago (RAIOMA) Program of the National Marine Fisheries Service, Southwest Fisheries Center, Honolulu Laboratory, a bathymetric survey was conducted of islands and banks which are currently being fished or appear to have potential habitat for commercially important marine species, and where the existing bathymetric detail was insufficient for the fisheries assessment work. The primary depth range of interest was 183-915 m (100-500 fathoms). The bathymetric surveys were conducted on the NOAA ship Townsend Cromwell over the period April through August 1982. Depth was determined by an echo sounder and position by loran C. The Townsend Cromwell was under the command of Cdr. Robert C. Roush. The survey work was performed by Cdr. Roush, Lt. James D. Sarb, Lt. Dean L. Smehil, Lt. Gary M. Barone, Lt. Thomas Clark, and Ens. Andrew J. Aldridge.
