Title: Oil Rig and Platform Reefing Gulf of Mexico from 2020-12-23 to 2020-12-25 (NCEI Accession 0269002)
Abstract: Blue Latitudes provided analysis of two ROV-based benthic surveys conducted on and around platform infrastructure reefed on the seafloor. These surveys were conducted in December 2020 within lease blocks East Cameron 270A (EC-270A) and South Marsh Island 205B (SM-205B), located in the northern Gulf of Mexico mesophotic zone (30-300 m) between Geyer Bank and Pinnacles Trend. The data includes diversity and abundance for corals and sponges. Mesophotic and Deep Benthic Communities Restoration: Coral Propagation Techniques (CPT) Project funded the annotations and performed a quality assurance/quality check prior to submitting the data to NCEI. The annotation data is formatted into two Excel spreadsheets, one for each site. This data package also includes images for each site taken from ROV video.
