The ROV is used to conduct video surveys of the seafloor. We used it at water depths between 20 and 55 m. It is controlled by students on board the ship and the habitat and organisms viewed are logged into a database during each dive. The Phantom 300 ROV used in the Transect Program has been generously loaned by the National Undersea Research Center at UNC-Wilmington.
