05/29/2013,00:22:34,briankennedy,stopping to troubleshoot the thruster
05/29/2013,00:42:00,briankennedy,aborting to dive due to the thruster failure. 
05/29/2013,00:47:48,Catalina Martinez,any plan to relaunch tonight if the thruster gets fixed or will the next dive wait until the a.m. regardless?
05/29/2013,01:21:31,briankennedy,We will not relaunch tonight  late morning would be the earliest that we would be able to redeploy.

05/29/2013,03:38:12,briankennedy,  The ROV was recovered early to troubleshoot a thruster problem. Mapping operations will commence Wednesday morning.   
05/29/2013,11:14:03,briankennedy,  The ROV was recovered early in order to troubleshoot an issue with the thrusters. Starting at O900 we will be collecting sub bottom profiler data over Knauss Seamount.   
05/29/2013,13:01:54,briankennedy,  The ROV was recovered early in order to troubleshoot an issue with the thrusters. Today we will be collecting sub bottom profiler data over Knauss Seamount.  Feed 2 will unavailable today.

05/29/2013,14:30:32,carolruppel,Meme--Sorry I was in the wrong room. I don't think Jason can use peer-to-peer chat from behind USGS firewall.  I'm at MIT.  The chirp data look outstanding...You might want to set gain down a bit, but the data look really great.  Jason is monitoring from the office too
05/29/2013,14:31:52,carolruppel,Jason & I agree that you have the hang of this acquisition now...It is looking very nice, and the adjustments you are making in real time are making a lot of difference to the quality of the data.  I went through some of the KEB files from last Friday over the VA seeps, and they are really good.  Jason couldn't get them FTPed over weekend either, but he might try later today.
05/29/2013,14:39:18,elizabethlobecker,The gain is very strong no matter what I try - let me try less power for a few pings

05/29/2013,17:49:33,dwightcoleman@tethys.gso.uri.edu,Hi Everyone, here is some background on the naming of Knauss Knoll from URI professor emeritus Michael Pilson, FYI...
05/29/2013,17:49:39,dwightcoleman@tethys.gso.uri.edu,Dwight:
05/29/2013,   In 1963 John Knauss hired Dale Krause as one or his first faculty hires. Dale and John were good friends.  Dale was a geologist who went to sea a lot, and always ran depth profiles along all cruise tracks with the instruments available at the time (from Alpine geophysical?, a company that did not survive).  According to my recollection, he found some valleys and peaks on the deep slope off the east coast somewhere.  He had the idea to name a peak the Knauss Knoll, and one of the nearby valleys the Krause Dale.   I don't remember how the names get officially recorded, nor do I remember if the Krause Dale was accepted and stuck.   I have a very faint recollection that there was some problem with the Krause Dale.

05/29/2013,23:38:09,briankennedy,  The EX is transiting to Wilmington Canyon collecting multibeam as we go. The plan is for an AM deployment of the ROV in the canyon in about 2000 meters
