NOAA EXPRESS – 2022

This expedition from Central Oregon to Northern California aimed at surveying coastal waters to describe seafloor habitats. The data gathered during this survey will be used by NOAA, USGS and BOEM to assist in the implementation of offshore wind energy infrastructure and inform management of essential fish habitats. MARE deployed the ROV Beagle on 3 dives surveying 5 transects from September 3rd – 14th 2022 in support of this effort.
