Metadata Updated: October 19, 2024

Operations will include the use of the ship's deep-water mapping systems (Kongsberg EM302 multibeam sonar, EK60/EK80 split-beam fisheries sonars, Knudsen 3260 chirp sub-bottom profiler sonar, and Teledyne Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler), XBTs in support of multibeam sonar mapping operations, CTD casts, OER's two-body ROV system (Deep Discoverer and Seirios), and the ship's high-bandwidth satellite connection for continuous ship-to-shore communications. Operations will focus on exploring deep waters (>250 m) in the U.S. exclusive economic zone (EEZ) off the Northeast U.S. Coast, as well as in adjacent waters in the EEZ of Canada.
