This dataset contains oceanographic data collected in Apia, Samoa. Operations were conducted within several marine protected areas and included the use of the ship’s deep water mapping systems (Kongsberg EM302 multibeam sonar, EK60 split-beam fisheries sonars, Knudsen 3260 chirp sub-bottom profiler sonar, and Teledyne Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers), and XBT casts in support of multibeam sonar mapping operations, OER’s 6000 m two-body ROV Deep Discoverer and Seirios, and the ship’s high-bandwidth satellite connection for continuous real-time ship-to-shore communications. Operations were planned in Tokelau, Kiribati’s Phoenix Islands Protected Area (PIPA), the Howland and Baker unit of the Pacific Remote Islands Maine National Monument (PRIMNM), National Marine Sanctuary of American Samoa, and Samoa.
