NOAA Ocean Explorer: RUSALCA 2009 Exploration: "Russian-American Long Term Census of the Arctic"

Brittle stars are among the many organisms scientists looked for in benthic trawls during the the 2004 Russian-American Long-Term Census of the Arctic (RUSALCA) mission. The 2009 RUSALCA mission set sail from Nome, Alaska on the Russian Research Vessel Professor Khromov on August 22, for a 40-day voyage into the Bering Strait and northwards to the Pacific side of the Arctic Ocean.
