A New Seep Site: July 7, 2019
During Dive 14 of the Windows to the Deep 2019 expedition, NOAA Ocean Exploration’s remotely operated vehicle (ROV) Deep Discoverer was used to explore cold seeps arrayed along a ridge located about 62 kilometers (39 miles) offshore Bodie Island, North Carolina. These methane seeps had never before been visited by autonomous, remotely operated, or human-occupied vehicles, and scientists were excited to watch as we made new discoveries during the ROV's progress up the ridge.
