07/13/2013,00:22:02,carolruppel,Hi Meme--You might try dialing back the gain a bit to see if we can get more subsurface structure.

All three feeds look good this morning on I1. 07/13/2013,12:20:19,Andrea Quattrini,Good morning everyone. We are currently in Hydrographer Canyon at a location of 40d 00.1256N -69d 01.1567W. We are exploring the west wall of the canyon from ~1425 to 900 m depth. We will be reaching bottom at the base of the slope, where we plan on moving upslope, and then gradually moving along the slope into shallower depths. The primary objectives of today’s dive include documenting deep-water corals and their faunal associates. This dive track was chosen based on modeling of slope from multibeam data, with previous information in this region from tow-cam data indicating that deepwater corals tend to occur on canyon walls with slopes >35deg. We are hopefully going to see a lot of corals today! It is going to be a great dive~ 07/13/2013, 07/13/2013,12:20:19,Andrea Quattrini,check check 07/13/2013,12:21:02,Taylor Heyl,Thank you Andrea.

We are currently recovering the ROV. Once the vehicles are secure on deck, we will comment CTD operations. A CTD cast will be conducted in deep water in Hydrographer Canyon and will include collection of water samples for later nutrient analysis. Following completion of CTD rosette operations, multibeam mapping operations wil be conducted overnight. Tomorrow, an ROV dive will be conducted in Hydrographer Canyon. Expected launch time is 0830.
