This was the first cruise to have 12-hour ROV operations. The daily schedule for the cruise was split between daytime ROV operations and nighttime CTD and mapping operations. ROV operations focused in depths >500m and included high-resolution visual surveys. Mapping operations included overnight sub-bottom data collection over key features, multibeam data collection, and water column backscatter data.
