Mesophotic and Deep Benthic Communities: Habitat Assessment and Evaluation (HAE) and Mapping, Ground-truthing, and Predictive Habitat Modeling (MGM) Projects Expedition on the NOAA Ship Nancy Foster (NF-22-06) in the Gulf of Mexico
This dataset collection includes raw data collected for the Mesophotic and Deep Benthic Communities (MDBC) projects between 2022-08-09 and 2022-08-28 aboard the NOAA Ship Nancy Foster (NF-22-06). Operations consisted of remotely operated vehicle (ROV) dives, multibeam surveys, and conductivity, temperature and depth (CTD) probe operations at known impacted and reference mesophotic sites (depths of 1100-2000m) in the northern Gulf of Mexico. The data include high-resolution multibeam echosounder data for bathymetry and backscatter surfaces, CTD profiles, ROV survey transects collecting video and still images, and biological, and sediment sampling. Additional related data products may also be included in this collection as they are submitted to the NCEI archive.
