"Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) conducted a deep-sea survey (PAC 2017-036) aboard the Canadian Coast Guard Ship (CCGS) John P. Tully from July 18 to August 1, 2017. The primary goals of this expedition were to characterize, map, and explore offshore seamount ecosystems within the recently-announced (May 2017) Pacific Offshore Area of Interest (AOI). A tow-camera system completed twelve dives at one test site, eight seamounts, and one ridge. A total of 62 hours were spent on the seafloor, covering approximately 50 linear km and spanning approximately 2 km of vertical distance. Oceanographic sampling was completed at four seamounts and included water column physical properties, chemistry, and zooplankton composition"--Abstract, page viii.
