Swiftsure Bank water column survey SO294, offshore British Columbia / J. Kehew, K. Douglas, M. Riedel, I. Klaucke, T. Norgard, C. Du Preez, Z. Li, and C. Stacey.: M183-2/8943E-PDF

"A water column survey at Swiftsure Bank shows evidence of venting from the seabed across a 47.8 km transect with 109 individual plumes identified. The RV Sonne SO294 CLOCKS expedition, from September 12-October 27, 2022, provided opportunity for a multibeam echosounder survey at Swiftsure Bank on behalf of Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) and Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) while transiting on September 17, 2022. The data and results are presented here. Cold seeps are relevant to marine spatial planning as they are ecologically and biologically significant areas (EBSAs), providing unique habitat for chemosynthetic organisms "--Abstract, page 3.
