Project aboard
We are proposing a science verification expedition for the new mROV vehicle. We will be testing the science capabilities of the vehicle. This will include using on-board sensors, samplers, plus the integration of user-provided equipment (e.g. samplers and sensors). Operations can be carried out at a hydrothermal vent system.
