Purpose
|
Biological Task Force (BTF) monitoring cruise. The
program is designed to gather and analyze data in order to establish
baseline levels of activity and to monitor the deposition and accumulation
of potentially toxic drilling material and any subsequent effect of such
activity on the benthic biota.
