Submarine vehicle
DeepWorker 2000 is a submarine vehicle developed by Nuytco Research, Ltd. It is capable of descending to a depth of 610 m (2001 ft) and remaining submerged for 12 hours. In 1999, it was deployed to the continental shelf and upper continental slope on a five-year mission in association with the National Geographic Society 's Sustainable Seas Expeditions . [1]
Projects
In 1999, the DeepWorker 2000 submersible was used to quantify the species of fish as well as the space resources utilized within the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary . [2]
In 2000, DeepWorker 2000 was used for evaluating the coral reef system located in the Florida Middle Grounds . [3]
