Primary Node PN1C provides power and bandwidth to the Oregon Offshore site (600 m). Because it is in shallow waters, it hosts a 'trawl resistant' frame - here with the protective doors closed. Credit: UW/NSF-OOI/CSSF, ROPOS Dive 1747, V14.

In 2007, the remotely operated vehicle ROPOS captured this video of humboldt squid playing 'laser tag' with green lasers emanating from the vehicle. The lasers are used for scale and are 10 cm apart. The video was taken in during a survey at Barkely Canyon off the west coast of Vancouver Island. Credit: Video credit: UW/CSSF/W.M. Keck. Foundation; ROPOS Dive R1074, 2007.
