Atlantic Deep-Water Canyons (Benthic Landers) 2013
Description
Each benthic lander contains a programmable sediment trap which
can take 12 monthly samples, plus instruments to record temperature, salinity,
dissolved oxygen, turbidity, and bottom currents every 15 minutes. Each lander
also holds settling plates that will allow us to examine recruitment of larval
invertebrates.
