#HOVAlvin did something unique on the #GalapagosDeep2023 expedition (other than find a new deep-water coral reef, anyway). It crossed the Equator more than 2100m underwater. #NSFfunded @NSF @USNavyResearch

@NSF @USNavyResearch @unols And in case you were wondering about science during the dive, yeah, there was that, too.

If you were thinking, "Gee, I wish there was video of that elf making the #HOVAlvin recovery," well, we got you covered. All business no matter what the getup. @NSF #NSFfunded @USNavyResearch @unols

New divers are the life blood of the deep-sea research community and the #HOVAlvin program. Congratulations to all. Where do you want to dive next? @NSF @USNavyResearch @unols #NSFfunded

#Throwback to the #1969 recovery of #HOVAlvin after 10 months at 5,000 ft. Besides these canned rations, apples and a bologna sandwich were found to still be edible–evidence that near-freezing temps & low O2 aids preservation. Go back in time with Alvin! bit.ly/3NPvKng

How's that saying go about "red sky at morning"? 🤢 Check out this update from the ongoing Escanaba Trough expedition with @oceanexplorer @WHOI @BOEM : ow.ly/Wgk650Jrt75

That’s a wrap on OECI Tech Integration Cruise! @oceanexplorer @WHOI @ccom_jhc #oceanexploration

Even though it’s built to work under ice, it’s also effective in the ice-free open ocean.

Love capturing the @WHOI NUI team hard at work aboard @EVNautilus 🌊🌊🌊 #OceanExplorers #OceanEngineering #humansatsea

Larvae from the #veligervoyage with @SymbiosisRox at hydrothermal vents in the Lau Basin! So many beautiful gastropod veligers on this snail cruise! Can you name all the other larval types? Thanks to @WHOI’s #AUVSentry and #ROVJason for our larval collections. #NSFfunded

14 dives later… the last Sentry dive is officially back on deck!!! 👏🏻 Shout out to our amazing Sentry team: Justin, Isaac, Rebecca, Joe, and Zac - you all are the best toucans we could’ve asked for 🐥 Thank you all for your hard work this trip! @DeepSubLab @WHOI @UWOceans

Sentry deployment captured beneath the waves 🌊 @WHOI @deepsublab #NSF_funded #RVThompson

This is what’s known as a captive audience. #NSFfunded @NSF

I like what the Sentry team have done with their space @4CASTGofar #NSFfunded #OBSIC_now @WHOI

After 2 weeks of incredible deep sea work in the beautiful Gulf of California… both Jason and Sentry are on deck and we are steaming back to the US. #deepsubmergence #ndsf #rovjason #auvsentry #nsffunded @whoi

A welcome sight. Way to go #ROVJason. One down (or up) and one to go.
