Purpose
|
|
To complete collection of seafloor video data begun on REEFS1 cruise
|
|
#03036 in September 2003. Video data were collected using Sony mini-DV camera
|
|
on a towed camera sled. These data will be used in conjunction with existing
|
|
sidescan-sonar, multibeam, sedimentologic, and biologic data to create habitat
|
|
maps.

Summary
|
|
This cruise was a continuation of cruise number 03036, which was
|
|
aborted because of bad weather and ship s engine problems. Although we had the
|
|
FSU ROV onboard we did not use it. All data on this leg were collected using the towed camera sled Rose Bud carying a Sony mini-DV camera with lasers spaced
|
|
20 cm apart and the Helios underwater video lighting system. As on Leg 1, the
|
|
sled was towed at about 1 kt for 45 minutes. Sites were numbered consecutively
|
|
with Leg 1, beginning with Site 14 and ending on Site 28. Sites 14 - 25 were in
|
|
Steamboat Lumps Reserve; Sites 26-28 were in Madison Swanson Reserve. Data
|
|
quality was very good to excellent except at Site 15 which was very poorly
|
|
focussed. 15 Stations Occupied.
