Purpose
|
|
Alvin dives in deep-water coral habitat for biological
|
|
|
Summary
|
|
Three Alvin dives were carried out, one in Gilbert Canyon,
|
|
one in Oceanographer Canyon, and one on Picket Seamount. Six
|
|
Photographic traverses were made using TOWCAM, a towed sled with a
|
|
still camera set to take overlapping pictures of the seafloor.
|
|
Living and fossil coral and other invertebrates were collected.
|
|
Specimens were sent to various museums and researchers. Photo and
|
|
video data are archived at WHOI.
