We will conduct a regional characterization and monitoring of the physical and biological components of the pelagic ecosystems of Davidson Seamount, within Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary (MBNMS). Data will be used to relate the spatial patterns of bird and mammal distribution with prey and oceanographic patterns, and identify resources at risk from human threats. NOAA and other regulatory agencies use this information in management decisions and to protect resources in National Marine Sanctuaries. Projects include marine mammal and seabird observations, plankton tows, midwater fish trawls, CTD, echosounder data collection, sea surface collection of microplastics (Manta trawl), water sampling for persistent organic pollutants, and filming for video production of NOAA research. Backup plan includes seafloor mapping in southern MBNMS.
