Title: Deepwater Systematic Surveys
Short Name: Deepwater Systematic Surveys
Status: In Work
Abstract:

The deepwater biodiversity surveys explore and describe the biodiversity of the bathy- and bentho-pelagic nekton near the Mid-Atlantic Ridge using Midwater and bottom trawls.

Purpose:

The Deepwater Biodiversity survey purpose is to collect voucher specimens of fish, cephalopods, and crustaceans; collect tissue samples for future analysis of taxonomy, systematic, and food-web relationships; photograph freshly collected specimens and systematic characters; and provide research opportunities and training in taxonomy, systematic and field oceanographic techniques for students and professional researchers.
