Loading the Camera

WHOI’s Towed Digital Camera and Multi-Rock Coring System—more commonly known as TowCam—is loaded onto the research vessel Wecoma in Newport, Oregon in mid-August 2008. WHOI research associate Erich Horgan (not pictured) served as TowCam engineer for the cruise to study seafloor structure and seismicity along the Cascadia subduction zone. The expedition was led by Anne Trehu and Marta Torres of Oregon State University.
