Back at MBARI, the Robison lab will analyze the video to identify and count species and features that were encountered. Today’s transects included both a video record and a plankton net tow for each. During a transect, the ROV is maneuvered forward over a given distance-in this case, a diagonal line from the depth of the bottom of the iceberg to the surface-and observations are recorded. One major accomplishment was the completion of vertical transects at the face of the iceberg and two distances away from it. Although the tether handlers on deck had to cope with falling snow as they reeled the ROV’s lifeline in and out, the vehicle experienced favorable diving conditions and water clarity.
