This dataset contains oceanographic and meteorological data, logs, and still images. This expedition is the first of three cruises for the Deep SEARCH project focused on exploring and characterizing seeps, corals, and canyon environments along the Atlantic margin. Oceanographic still images were obtained with the Sentry AUV. The images are raw Bayer-encoded (color) TIFF files directly from the camera.

This dataset contains oceanographic data (Sound Velocity Profile Data, CTD Data, and Tide Data). This expedition was conducted to investigate deep coral areas, and other suspected areas of essential fish habitat on the outer continental shelf and upper slope of the South Atlantic Bight.

This dataset contains oceanographic data (ADCP, CTD, underway), submersible data, images, and documentation. The cruise focused on several seep sites, canyons, and hard bottom features located less than 100 nm offshore. The goal of this expedition was to validate several seep targets, image and map seeps, canyons (e.g., Keller, Pamlico, Hatteras, and unnamed canyons), and hard bottom features located between Virginia and Georgia.

This dataset contains oceanographic data (ADCP, CTD, ROV, Jason, Lander, SCS, Vehicle, XBT), images, and documentation. The primary goals of this cruise were as follows: Exploration of new sites and new areas within known sites, sampling of corals and associated fauna for biodiversity and biogeography, community sampling at seep and coral habitats, sediment sampling at soft sediment sites for biogeochemistry and diversity, collections of corals for live coral experiments, water sampling for water chemistry and microbial diversity, sediment, water, and faunal samples for eDNA work, geological observations and sampling for geomorphology, and lander deployments.

Submarine canyons are dominant features of the outer continental shelf and slope of the US East coast from Cape Hatteras to the Gulf of Maine. They are important conduits of anthropogenic pollutants, organic carbon, and sediments from shallow to deeper waters and support ecologically important ecosystems, such as cold seeps and hard bottom and coral habitats. The geology of these features has been well studied; however, despite their high productivity, biological data are limited (particularly deeper than 200 m). Much of the biological data available for these canyons is represented by unpublished reports, unanalyzed data sets, and anecdotal observations. The canyons between Cape Hatteras and Cape Cod are the subject of potential oil exploration, intensive fisheries, and are possible National Marine Sanctuary candidates, and yet these are even less well known than those further north.

This dataset contains oceanographic data collected from NOAA Ship Gordon Gunter in the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean Sea, and North Atlantic Ocean. Data acquisition from shipboard sensors includes navigation data, ship sensor raw data (Fathometer, Surface Depth, Sea Surface Temperature, Temperature, Trawl, True Wind Speed, Water Speed) and (Profile Data - CTD, Sonde). This expedition explored protected and unprotected deep water coral reefs and hard-bottom communities.
