Dive into the Chautauqua Seamount chain, south of Hawaii, and explore the deep-sea live with the Nautilus team as they use ROVs to explore and take samples! Over the course of 16 days, the team will generate high-quality seafloor maps and conduct ROV dives and collect geological samples for later geochemical analysis. The Chautauqua seamounts offer important marine habitats that protect various ocean organisms. As they move into this region, the team acknowledge generations of indigenous Hawaiians and today’s stewards of these lands and waters.
