Preparing for remotely operated vehicle (ROV) seafloor surveys : a descriptive checklist for ocean scientists and managers / by Bárbara de Moura Neves, Vincent Auger, Evan Edinger, Peter Lockhart, Christopher...: Fs97-6/3578E-PDF

"Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) are indispensable tools for surveying benthic environments, especially in the deep sea. Despite their efficacy, ROV surveys are intricate, costly, and demand meticulous planning and coordination. Each ROV survey's uniqueness underscores the need to consider key factors ensuring efficiency and data quality. Neglecting these may lead to losing valuable ROV and ship time, diminished survey quality, or data collection inconsistencies, impeding subsequent analysis. This guide aims to enhance the preparation and execution of ROV surveys by providing comprehensive advice on dive plan elements, sample collection preparation, and early discussions about deliverables and expectations with the ROV team"--Abstract, page viii.
