2013 ROV video survey in a deep-water environment at Disko Fan, southeastern Baffin Bay, aboard CCGS Amundsen

A video-survey using a Super Mohawk remotely operated vehicle (ROV) was conducted in August 2013 in the Disko Fan area, SE Baffin Bay. A multibeam survey was conducted in the area before the ROV dive. The benthic environment was video-recorded using a standard-definition color camera, at depths of ~900-950 m.
