        | Summary of Field Work: | Field work during the 4-year program (now 5 years, with a no-cost extension) included 3 seabed and water column sampling cruises to Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and Atlantic Margin seep sites plus multiple cruises to deploy and recover moorings and collect MOCNESS samples. 
 A 2015 Florida Escarpment cruise on the R/V Walton Smith represents the final cruise of the program, to recover a mooring deployed in summer 2014 and collect a final set of plankton tows.
