| Purpose | Deepwater Atlantic Habitats II: Continued Atlantic Research and Exploration in Deepwater Ecosystems with Focus on Coral, Canyon, and Seep Communities | ||||||||
| Location | Mid- and Southern US Atlantic margin | ||||||||
| Summary | This cruise was visited by two different Hurricanes (José and Maria). Original departure port (Morehead City, NC) was moved to Norfolk, VA and departure date was moved from 11 Sep to 12 Sep. Rode out Hurricane José in Morehead City, NC 16-19 Sept. Cruise was terminated on 22 Sept (6 days early) because of approaching of Hurricane Maria. Complete Cruise details available from NOAA OE website for Cruise https://oceanexplorer.noaa.gov/explorations/17deepsearch/welcome.html. NOAA Survey ID = PC-17-05 Total Ship Trackline=1,200 kms Pisces bathymetry (ME-70) =44 km Pisces seismic profile (Knudsen 3260)= 800kms Sentry Dives=3 Sentry bathymetry (Reson 7125)=145 kms (depth and backscatter) Sentry sidescan seismic profiles (EdgeTech 2200M)-145 kms Sentry--continuous bottom photographs CTDs=7 6 sediment samples from monocore on CTD | ||||||||
| Info derived | Bathymetry, sediment thickness, outcrop mapping | ||||||||
| Comments | Multibeam data (depth,backscatter,water column) will be collected via Simrad ME 70 hull mounted sonar on NOAA Ship Pisces. In addtion AUV Sentry (WHOI) will collect same multibeam data with a Reson 7125 sonar. Chirp SBP collected via Setnry AUV. Imagery from AUV.

| Water-column environmental variables and accompanying discrete CTD measurements collected offshore the U.S. Mid- and South Atlantic (ver. 2.0, July 2022) | CTD - generic | Various water column variables, including salinity, dissolved inorganic nutrients, dissolved inorganic carbon, and radio-carbon isotopes were measured in samples collected using a Niskin-bottle rosette at selected depths from deepwater sites offshore the US Mid- and South Atlantic from September 2017 to April 2019. CTD (Conductivity Temperature Depth) data were also collected at each depth that a Niskin-bottle sample was collected and are presented along with the water sample data during the following five cruises: PC1704 (USGS field activity 2017-004-FA) in September 2017, ENG615 (USGS field activity 2018-024-FA) in June 2018, AT41 (USGS field activity 2018-042-FA) in August 2018, BMCC-2018 (USGS field activity 2018-053-FA) in October 2018, and RB1903 (USGS field activity 2019-620-FA) in April 2019. This data release supersedes version 1.0, published in March 2021 at https://doi.org/10.5066/P9V7ODDR.
