New WHOI vessel to dive deep into the Arctic

"In 2020, WHOI hopes to push ocean exploration in new and ambitious ways. The newly upgraded Nereid Under Ice (NUI) is a hybrid remotely operated vehicle that will help us do this... NUI deploys from the Norwegian icebreaker KronPrins Haakon to conduct its first deep ocean dives to 4,000 meters (over 13,000 feet) along the Gakkel Ridge in the Arctic Ocean." - Excerpt from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution
