Dunk test—Every new WHOI vehicle goes through rigorous testing before ever setting out on its first research expedition at sea. From left, Bob Petitt (WHOI), Andone Lavery (WHOI), Jennifer Johnson (NOAA Fisheries), Tim Stanton (WHOI), and Mike Jech (NOAA Fisheries) put the Deep-See through its paces in a test tank at WHOI’s Coastal Research Laboratory.
Image Of the Day caption:
Scientists and engineers are building a new vehicle that will be towed from research ships and able to transmit data in real time. The Deep-See will be equipped with instruments that can transmit sound waves across a broad spectrum of frequencies, a large-area stereo camera system, a small-scale but high-resolution holographic camera, and a suite of environmental sensors and water samplers. Earlier this spring, (from left) Bob Petitt (WHOI), Andone Lavery (WHOI), Jennifer Johnson (NOAA Fisheries), Tim Stanton (WHOI), and Mike Jech (NOAA Fisheries) conducted one of the first tests of the Deep-See in a test tank at WHOIs Coastal Research Laboratory. Once it is fully operational, Deep-See could be used to explore the oceans twilight zone and other little-known ocean regions.
