First in situ observations of soft bottom megafauna from the Cascais Canyon head [PDF]
We report the first in situ observations of soft bottom megafauna from the Cascais Canyon head. Observations were collected opportunistically during three technical dives with the ROV Luso between 460-805 m at two locations distanced 1,230 m.
