| Abstract: | From 1984-1985, the NOAA/USC Interim Science Program was established at the USC Catalina Marine Science Center in anticipation of the deployment at Catalina Island of the saturation habitat now known as Aquarius. A Waystation and Tether Training Program was developed by NURP Science Program Director Bob Given, Hyperbaric Chamber Director Andy Pilmanis, and Operations Director Jack Baldelli. Two 4-day missions (130 fsw max. depth) were performed by Peter Haaker (California Department of Fish and Game) and Michael Lang (San Diego State University) investigating white abalone and California octopus. The training program’s duration was two days long, more than adequate to acquire the necessary skills for the operational aspects of this waystation surface-supplied diving system. |
