Expedition AL414 with RV ALKOR: ROBEX

Chief Scientist: Dr. Olaf Pfannkuche, GEOMAR Kiel

Expedition AL414 with RV ALKOR was conducted within the Helmholtz allinace „Robotic Exploration of Extreme Environments – ROBEX“ in the Skagerrak between the 2nd and the 8th of May, 2013. This expedition was dedicated to testing ROV PHOCA in larger depths than on previous cruises (POS434, POS438 und AL412) and also for exchange of information between the different working groups of the allicane, i.e. space and deep sea technologies.

During AL414 four dives were completed in water depths between 175 and 690 m in the central Skagerrak.
