Information about dive activities were recorded into the Cruise Information Management System (CIMS) by the NOAA Office of Ocean Exploration's data manager during the "Life on the Edge 2005" expedition, October 16 through November 4, 2005. Information contained in CIMS includes submersible, remotely operated vehicle, autonomous underwater vehicle, and SCUBA operational information and a summary of scientific observations during each dive; ship activity information (positions, transits, and visitor shuttles); sample information; water column and bottom conditions; weather observations; sea state observations; education and outreach activity information; media event information; scientific instrumentation information; transect information; dive site profiles; and a record of all data collected by principal investigators. The data presented here are the tables from the original CIMS which is a FileMaker Pro database.

Information about non-dive activities were recorded into the Cruise Information Management System (CIMS) by the NOAA Office of Ocean Exploration's data manager during the "Life on the Edge 2003: Exploring Deep Ocean Habitats" expedition, August 16 through 27, 2003. Information contained in CIMS includes type of activity, start date and time of activity, end date and time of activity, location, activity objectives, location of activity, and technology.

Data and information collected by the submersible Johnson Sea-Link II at waypoints along its track during two of the seventeen dives of the 2003 "Life on the Edge - Exploring Deep Ocean Habitats" expedition sponsored by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Office of Ocean Exploration, August 16 through August 27, 2003. Measurements and information include sub's position and depth; personnel assignments; dive, mission, target, and vehicle ID's; dive comments; hyperlinks to CTD plots; water temperature; and salinity. The Marine Operations Division of the Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institution provided the original submersible data. Quality assurance included a comparsion and synchronization of dive log waypoint depths and CTD depths, review of minimum and maximum values, and deletion of bad values.
