Figure 11. Photograph showing the small SEABed Observation and Sampling System (SEABOSS), a modified Van Veen grab sampler equipped with still and video photographic systems, mounted on the aft starboard side of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) research vessel Rafael. The system uses a winch, mounted on a davit (left), and a take-up reel for the video-signal and power cable (right). The small SEABOSS was used on USGS cruise 2010-010-FA; a larger version of this device, the mid-sized SEABOSS was used on USGS cruise 2010-015-FA. |
