Final Campod in Emerald Basin

At 6 am on Friday June 10th, we completed our final Campod transect in Emerald Basin.  When we get back to the Bedford Institute of Oceanography on June 14th, the job of analyzing the video and images will begin.  Below are a sample of the final images gathered from Emerald Basin by Campod.  At 7 am this morning we began Videograb deployments at sites identified during Campod transects.  A subsequent post describing Videograbbing in Emerald Basin and some early images will soon follow.
