Oceanographic equipment customized to reach the benthic boundary layer
Oceanographic equipment customized to reach the benthic boundary layerSteaming to the deployment site south of Martha's Vineyard, MA in 2011. The platform shown was specially adapted so the arm cycles up and down through the Benthic Boubdary Layer while deployed on the seafloor. For more information see https://soundwaves.usgs.gov/2011/11/fieldwork2.html.

USCGC Healy Working at Close Quarters with CCGS Louis S. St-Laurent
USCGC Healy Working at Close Quarters with CCGS Louis S. St-LaurentIt is very unusual for large (400 ft) vessels to be so close together during normal science operations. In this case, the skilled ship handling of the Captain from USCGC Healy enabled Healy to back within ~75 ft of Louis to clear ice around the bow of Louis, thereby releasing pressure and allowing her to move again.
