  Ocean Exploration Trust

  Aug 2023 - Sept 2023

  Ocean Explorer

  Ocean Exploration Trust and partners will conduct a telepresence-enabled expedition to explore unseen deep-sea habitats aboard E/V Nautilus with ROV and seafloor mapping operations in the Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument (PMNM) focused on the largely unexplored northwestern section of the Monument. PMNM is the largest marine protected area in the United States covering over 1.5 million square kilometers. While past expeditions have increased baseline knowledge of the deep-water resources here, large areas remain completely unexplored! This expedition will gather data urgently needed to address local management and science needs of PMNM, including a better understanding of the deep-sea natural and cultural resources, biogeographic patterns of species distributions, and seamount geologic history. While the expedition’s main focus will be to explore the geology and biology of unexplored seamounts, the operating area includes several historically-significant shipwrecks associated with the Battle of Midway. Should these historic wrecks be located, and weather conditions allow for ROV dives on these locations, the expedition will seek to conduct non-intrusive, ROV-based archaeological characterizations.
