Mapping the deep

From Afternoons, 1:15 pm on 25 July 2024

A research team from the Ocean Exploration Trust is exploring the unknown deep sea habitats near Jarvis Island. They are aboard the EV Nautilus, which is equipped with remotely operated vehicles that will help them expand the mapping of the area. 

They're almost half way through the 25-day expedition, which began in Honolulu, Hawaiʻi, and will end in Pago Pago, American Samoa. 

Live from the ship is Lucy Dickie, Communications and Outreach Officer.
