        abstract:  Images and video of habitat and organisms from ROV dives under white light; images and video of organisms taken with low light cameras/ Medusa lander/lagoratory images of bioluminescence. Excel database of information about collected samples.
        purpose:  For this expedition we propose to extend this exploration on vision and bioluminescence in the deep-sea benthos to the Gulf of Mexico using the ROVGlobal Explorer, which has excellent imaging and collection capabilities. Images taken during the Okeanos Explorer 2012 Gulf of Mexico expedition suggest that there are numerous examples of these cnidarian/crustacean symbioses, leading to the intriguing possibility that they too may be selectively feeding on pelagic organisms that impact the benthic structures, a virtually unexplored type of benthic/pelagic coupling. We propose to significantly expand our exploration of deep-sea benthic bioluminescence, examine interactions between vision and bioluminescence, and characterize the communities of organisms in two relatively unknown deep-sea habitats that were briefly visited by the Okeanos Explorer ? one on the northern West Florida Escarpment, and one at the base of the West Florida Escarpment.

            description:  The flagship of LUMCON's marine operations and fleet is the 116 ft. R/V Pelican, which was designed and outfitted to conduct a variety of oceanographic research missions. She's based at LUMCON's DeFelice Marine Center in Cocodrie, LA. The reliability, utility, and seaworthiness of the vessel and the crew are well-demonstrated and heralded by the scientific community. Often referred to by oceanographers as the "Workhorse of the Gulf", the R/V Pelican has a long track record of successful scientific research and is equipped to handle operations that include: wet and dry lab use, scientific diving, trawling, large box-core sampling, piston cores, shallow seismic surveys, ROV operations, buoy deployment and recovery, and hydrographic casts with CTD-rosette systems. She has four laboratories and is capable of taking 14 scientists to sea for periods up to three weeks at a time. The main deck runs the length of the vessel and covers approximately 1,056 square feet of open aft deck and about 1,000 sq. ft. of interior deck space forward.
