Sea-floor videos (benthos) along 12 ROV profiles during POLARSTERN cruise PS82 (ANT-XXIX/9)

In order to map the distribution and composition of the benthos in water depths up to 500 m, a modern inspection-class ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle V8 Sii, Ocean Modules) was deployed at 12 stations in the area of the Filchner Trench and in the BENDEX area in Austasen. The V8 Sii is a comparatively small, but modular system with a size of ca. 60x80x80 cm owned by AWI's Bentho-Pelagic Processes section. It is equipped with two High Definition (HD) video cameras (Kongsberg oe14-502) in front and one wide-angle camera (Bowtech L3C-550) for umbilical surveillance in the back. Both HD cameras were equipped with two parallel red lasers providing reference scales of 4 and 6 cm on the videos.
