    • Okeanos Explorer (EX1605L2): CAPSTONE CNMI and Mariana Trench MNM (Mapping)

    Metadata Updated: October 19, 2024

    Operations will use the ship’s deep water mapping systems (Kongsberg EM302 multibeam sonar, EK60 split-beam fisheries sonars, ADCPs, and Knudsen 3260 chirp sub-bottom profiler sonar), CTD rosette, and the ship’s high-bandwidth satellite connection for periodic real-time ship to shore communications. Operations for this cruise will include 24 hour mapping, periodic telepresence-based remote participation, and CTD rosette operations. Multibeam and singlebeam mapping operations will be conducted 24 hours a day throughout the cruise. Sub-bottom profile mapping will be conducted 24 hours a day at the discretion of the CO. XBT and/or UnderwayCTD (UCTD) sound velocity casts in support of multibeam sonar mapping operations will be conducted at an interval defined by prevailing oceanographic conditions, but not to exceed 6 hours.
