HURL
(Hawai‘i Undersea Research Laboratory)
The
Hawai‘i Undersea Research Laboratory (HURL) was established
by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)
and the University of Hawai‘i. HURL's mission is to study
deep water marine processes in the Pacific Ocean. You can
follow HURL's 2002 expedition to the NWHI by clicking here.
In 2002 HURL will be visiting Raita Bank, Northampton Bank,
Brooks Banks, and St. Rogatien Bank to evaluate Bottomfish
populations. They will also be assessing the role of precious
coral beds as foraging grounds for Hawaiian monk seals. Learn
more about banks and seamounts.
