Borelli M. 2019. Ground-truthing video, 2014-2015, Cape Cod National Seashore
Video data for stations at which biological and sediment grab samples were collected with a Young Modified Van Veen (0.04m squared surface area) by the Center for Coastal studies aboard the R/V Marindin in order to describe the benthic invertebrate community and sediment characteristics of the Pleasant Bay, Nauset Marsh, Wellfleet harbor and Herring Cove Coastal Systems. These data are a part of the Submerged Marine Habitat Mapping Studies project. In addtion A GoPro Hero 3™ was attached to the sampler, and high-resolution video was collected for each sample to aid in bottom characterization and documentation. Water column data was collected using a YSI Castaway® CTD. One cast to the seafloor was conducted at each station to collect conductivity, temperature and depth (CTD) data after the boat had been anchored at the station, but before collecting the grab samples.
