04/13/2014,13:14:30,kelleyelliott,Good Morning All! NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer has arrived at 27d 05' 55.3" N, 92d 37' 19.25" W at about 1270m for dive GB907. The local time onboard is 0815. We are on site and preparing the ROVs for deployment. We are on schedule for an ontime deployment at 0830 Central. The ROV should arrive on bottom around 0930, and we will host our science debriefing at 0845 Central. We will stream the updated ROV dive plan with the latest backscatter and potential seep data during the debriefing.

For those just tuning in - the ROV had to be recovered early today due to sargassum weed clogging the intake on the ship's engine. We needed to get the ship moving to help clear it out and will learn more details from the ship in a bit. The ROV is now secured on deck, and the ship will commence mapping operations soon. Tomorrow we will dive at Northwest Gulf Deep - a dive site where we'll be exploring the steep slope and top of a mound with high backscatter, looking for deep-sea coral habitat. We are planning for an ontime deployment (0830 Central), however weather is building and it's possible we'll need to recover early tomorrow.
