The FKNMS and NCCOS contracted the University of North Carolina in Wilmington, NC Undersea Vehicles Program to investigate the habitats found in depths deeper than 20 m in certain parts of the sanctuary. The ROV was piloted on dives on reefs and banks in the Tortugas Ecological Reserve North in the FKNMS. |
