Abstract:
"The 1999 Sustainable Seas Expeditions in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary provided scientists and resource managers with an opportunity to explore relatively unknown marine environments near the Dry Tortugas region where a proposed no-take reserve may be established. Over a several day period, DeepWorker pilots conducted 19 dives with the deepest at 165 feet. Investigators explored an area known as Sherwood Forest, an atypical formation of unique corals. Furthermore, along the reef tract, pilots were able to run deep water transects, adding a new dimension to information collected in shallower areas of the reefs ... Establishing the sanctuary's second no-take ecological reserve in the Tortugas region is a high priority for NOAA. As both a source and a sink for marine biodiversity, the region plays a critical role in sustaining the health of the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary. The boundaries for the reserve are under development and the reserve is scheduled to be initiated in 2000. This study was designed to explore new deep water areas in the Tortugas and provide critical baseline information on benthic habitats and fish populations. These objectives were accomplished through 10 dives completed by Sustainable Seas Expeditions investigators Walt Jaap, Pamela Hallock Muller , Erich Mueller, and Laddie Akins as well as Sylvia Earle. The results of this study will help characterize the proposed ecological reserve"--Expeditions' PDF documentation.
