Deep Sea Fish and Sediment Surveys in the Gulf
So close to land I could smell it…….
February 8, 2013
This morning began with the Northern most station, PCB01, right off Panama City. This was a shallow site at only 25 meters depth. We arrived on site at 0600. At one point land could be seen until the fog rolled in. We were even able to get cell phone connection! Now, we’re heading back along the transect line collecting data using the SIPPER and stopping at every predetermined station to collect data. We had visitors along the way.
A pod of dolphins took the opportunity to ride the bow wave of the Weatherbird II.
A beautiful sight brightens the day for the crew of the Weatherbird II.
One of many pictures capturing the beauty of dolphins.
